In the last 25 years suicide has increased by 30% in the US, while a growing crisis in mental health is recognized in the post-pandemic world. Broadening training of clinicians to treat suicidal patients is an appropriate response.

The Austen Riggs Center presents the work of the Psychotherapy Action Network (PsiAN). This moderated panel discussion focuses on helping therapists address insurance denials, violations of parity, and other treatment limitations that impact providing optimal care for our patients.

However, that lawsuit is now in peril, and insurance companies continue to violate parity laws and essentially ration care, which particularly impacts the provision of depth therapy.
