It seems that the "the mental health crisis" in America is in the news constantly. It's a major driver of crime, homelessness, and personal ruin, but few people have a good understanding of the differences between "mental illness" and situational stress, crisis, and trauma. What can be done to deal with the mental and behavioral health issues that individuals and families face? What therapy is available "for what"? What level of care can be provided "by whom"?
