“No mental health professional is immune to the possibility of working with suicidal clients, and it is imperative that every clinician learn how to deliver expert care in order to save lives… [CAMS-care] offers a practical, empathic, evidence-based approach that draws on decades of experience and refinements.”

Shireen L. Rizvi, PhD, ABPP

Graduate School of Applied and Professional Psychology, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey

“CAMS is arguably one of the most widely used approaches to clinical care for suicidal patients… User friendly and accessible, the CAMS model can be readily integrated into any clinician’s therapeutic practice, regardless of background or training.”

Craig J. Bryan, PsyD, ABPP

Trott Gebhardt Philips Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Health, The Ohio State University

“An emphasis on the patient’s perspective and the clinical alliance is reflected in the four pillars of CAMS: empathy, collaboration, honesty, and suicide focus… [CAMS] provides a practical roadmap for incorporating CAMS into any clinical practice.”

Christine Yu Moutier, MD

Chief Medical Officer, American Foundation for Suicide Prevention

It provides further exploration of a “post-suicidal life” and a new optional Living Status Form (LSF) that completely mirrors the first page SSF used in the first session for successful CAMS outcomes.
