Understanding the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS)
June 18 @ 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm
Learn about the most widespread standardized suicide assessment tool, the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS), a science-driven screening model to accurately assess suicidality, determine the risk level, and offer appropriate support.
Learn from the developer of the tool, Dr. Kelly Posner Gerstenhaber, Ph.D., clinical professor of medical psychology at Columbia University. She is the director of The Columbia Lighthouse Project, a nonprofit with a mission to teach the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) to therapists and clinicians. Dr. Posner will delve into the research behind the C-SSRS tool and offer practical insights on its implementation.
