We assist callers in resolving the immediate crisis and in making plans for follow up services if needed. The services offered include:

  • risk assessment
  • psychosocial assessment
  • supportive counseling
  • critical incident/post traumatic stress debriefing
  • short-term and follow up treatment
  • coordination of other services such as hospitalization (voluntary and involuntary)
  • psychiatric consultation

These services are provided on the telephone, or face-to-face at our office, Porter Hospital Emergency Room, Middlebury College Health Services, Middlebury Police Station, Vermont State Police Station, or in the field depending on the situation.
