Critical Concepts Consulting

Dr. Clark has studied suicide for over 30 years, and presented hundreds of hours on the topic from conference presentations to 2-day workshops. While a graduate student in Southern California in the 80's, he took the opportunity to attend a day-long presentation by the late Dr. Ed Shneidman that helped inspire him to choose suicidology as his specialty. Dan has used that knowledge and experience in creating his 6 hour course, Assessment, Treatment, and Management of Suicide (ATMS). This course meets the new Washington State requirement for suicide training for mental health and medical professionals. In addition, Dr. Clark has a variety of presentations prepared, including critical incident stress management; peer support; death notification; time, anger, and stress management; workplace violence; coping with change, communication skills, and related topics. If you have a specific topic in mind that is not listed above or would like a unique topic created for your organization, contact us about developing a course to address your specific needs.
