Strategy Session with Dr. Neal
A private 90-minute session for your leadership or clinical team on recognizing and responding to psychological abuse.
For organizations
Advancing the recognition of psychological abuse across healthcare.
Hospitals, health systems, and health plans can bring Dr. Avery Neal's assessment tools, training, and psychoeducational programs to the settings where psychological abuse has gone unnamed.
Dr. Neal's work now extends beyond individual clinical practice to address psychological abuse across the broader healthcare system. She is advancing the clinical and medical recognition of psychological abuse, a form of harm that remains largely unassessed and unidentified in healthcare settings. She has developed assessment and identification tools where none previously existed, and is building the practical resources frontline clinicians need to recognize psychological abuse in their patients.
Through partnerships with hospitals, health systems, and health plans, she is bringing her psychoeducational programs directly to patients so that recognizing psychological abuse and supporting recovery become part of care.
