"The CLASP: A Clinician's Guide to a Multi-Modal Intervention for Suicide Prevention is an essential resource for therapists. Driven by scientific research, the treatment model targets key factors for suicide prevention with practical, effective strategies. Beautifully written and filled with detailed examples, this outstanding manual provides crucial tools for clinical care with compassion and competence." --Kathryn H. Gordon, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist and Author of The Suicidal Thoughts Workbook "Evidence-based treatments are sorely needed as we aim for zero suicides. Developed through rigorous research, CLASP combines frequent caring contacts with targeted therapy to offer a unique treatment option for clinicians. It can be provided through a variety of platforms and is an ideal approach for today's healthcare settings." --Brian K. Ahmedani, PhD, LMSW, Senior Scientist, Henry Ford Health System "This guide for clinicians presents a much-needed evidence-based brief intervention to prevent suicidal behavior. The guide is well-written and easy to follow using a plain language (non-jargony) step-by-step approach to conducting CLASP. The authors are an accomplished team of clinicians with many years of experience working with suicidal patients and their vast experience is in evidence throughout the guide." --Barbara Stanley, PhD, Professor of Medical Psychology, Department of Psychiatry, Columbia University and Director, Suicide Prevention Training Implementation and Evaluation Center for Practice Innovations, New York State Psychiatric Institute
