- Author of the non-fiction book on mental health reform - "Breakdown: A Clinician's Experience in a Broken System of Emergency Psychiatry," published October 6, 2018.
It's well known that our mental health system is broken. I use my ten years of experience as a mobile psychiatric emergency social worker to demonstrate this in "Breakdown." I walk readers through fascinating case vignettes. Finally, I suggest solutions for reform.
I'm a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker who has a lot of experience as a full-time mobile emergency psychiatric clinician in Massachusetts. After graduating from Columbia University with a Master of Science in Social Work, I worked as an inpatient psychiatric social worker for approximately seven years. I'm an active member of the National Shattering Silence Coalition that advocates for the seriously mentally ill population. - Woonplaats
