Make it stand out

As a disclaimer, this blog is not intended for use in diagnosing anyone, and it does not advise any actions. Know yourself and act in ways that align with your values, with the understanding that the consequences are yours alone.  As always, if you are in immediate danger call 911, and if you are in a mental health crisis call 988.  This blog is educational and is not considered part of a therapeutic relationship, even if you happen to be my client.  You may ask questions via my e-mail address, I typically respond within a week.  In general e-mail is simply not a secure, private method for keeping confidentiality. I do not provide therapy or crisis support by email, and I do not guarantee a response within 24 hours. If your situation is urgent or an emergency, use 911 or 988 as above.  Indiana law requires anyone with reasonable cause to suspect child abuse/neglect to report it (failure to report can be a misdemeanor, so call 1-800-800-5556 if you have any suspicion), and I will also report any threat to self or others, and anything else for which I am mandated to report, to the proper authorities or individuals, after I see the communication, even if you ask me to keep it confidential.  This blog does not represent the opinions of any employer.
