Transforming Suicide Risk Assessment-Katie C. Lewis, PhD
2024-25 Grand Round Series

Clinical suicide risk assessment is often conducted using standardized assessment measures that fail to integrate contemporary theories and empirical findings, especially those pertaining the importance of analyzing the timing and contextual factors affecting suicide risk. This presentation will support a more nuanced understanding of patient-centered, ecologically valid methods of assessing risk for suicide in clinical populations, enabling attendees to develop greater precision and sensitivity in their risk assessment and intervention approaches.
