Our Services
Consultation in Gainesville, Florida
Our therapists are available to offer consultation on a variety of topics. We are frequently sought for our expertise to comment in the media, to consult with other medical and mental health professionals, and to help family members navigate the confusing paths of treatment for our clients who need more significant Intensive Outpatient or Residential treatment (in particular for eating disorders, psychosis, and addiction), and to help families concerned with domestic violence/intimate partner violence. We also consult with colleagues about private practice, group practice, group therapy and other business aspects of running a therapy practice.
We offer hourly, half- and full-day, or longer consultations or in-services as needed.

If you hire us for consultation for a mental health problem or psychosocial issue in yourself or a loved one, we will develop a plan with you, and we research our recommendations, explain them fully to you, and we will follow up with you to assess the fit and/or need for ongoing recommendations. We will make sure you are getting accurate and current information, and we will assist with ongoing plans, including (where relevant) safety planning, discharge planning, and stepping down levels of care.
If you hire us for your organization to explore mental wellness and personal growth, we will listen to your needs, collaborate with you on a plan that meets your desire for education and information, and negotiate the logistics of delivering content to your organization in the form of a workshop, inservice, or retreat. We will provide ways to provide us feedback, and follow up with you afterwards to hear your feedback and share our recommendations for ongoing learning.
