When an individual experiences a behavioral health crisis they may be at risk for severe instability and disruption in their daily functioning. This risk can be increased by several factors such as lack of natural support systems, isolation, or substance use disorders. Without therapeutic intervention the outcome of some behavioral health crisis can increase the risk for psychiatric hospitalization and involvment with law enforcement.
