Crisis Management & Acute Support Services

Expert, coordinated support for families navigating complex mental health, substance use, or legal crises.

This is The Moment You’re Not Meant to Handle Alone

A psychiatric hospitalization. A relapse. An arrest. A downward spiral no one saw coming.

At Liston Education Group, we guide families through complex and unpredictable moments, helping young adults and adults facing mental health, substance use, and co-occurring challenges. Our approach brings immediate support, strategic coordination, and a calm plan you can trust, no matter how uncertain the situation feels.

Crisis Doesn’t Mean Chaos

We come from families like yours and understand the complexity of these moments. Crisis can strike suddenly, and with the right guidance, it doesn’t have to unravel everything.

We help families move from panic to plan, offering calm, expert coordination and guidance through:

  • Psychiatric crises, including suicidal ideation and hospitalization

  • Escalation of substance use or other process addictions (gaming, technology, gambling)

  • Legal issues requiring diversion, stabilization, or reentry planning

  • Refusal to engage in treatment or repeated treatment failure

  • Complex dual diagnoses and high-acuity mental health concerns

  • Crisis-level behaviors impacting family safety or wellbeing

Crisis rarely arrives “on schedule.” That’s why your response team matters.

If you’re worried about a loved one’s safety, escalating behaviors, or a breakdown in care, reach out now. The sooner we intervene, the more options we have.

Our Crisis Management Services

Liston Education Group offers comprehensive, coordinated support during crisis situations.

Clinical Triage and Immediate Case Assessment

We move quickly to understand what’s happening.

Our team reviews clinical, behavioral, and family information to determine risk, set priorities, and outline next steps within hours.

Coordination with Interventionists and Transport Professionals

When urgent action is needed, we coordinate logistics with intervention and transport teams.

Everyone involved works from the same plan and communicates clearly throughout the process.

Families in crisis need a steady partner.

Someone close enough to understand, yet clear enough to see what others can’t.

We help parents and support systems step out of reaction mode, access the right help at the right time, and move forward with the kind of support they really need.

Rapid Connection to High-Acuity Treatment Programs and Specialists

We help families access appropriate treatment and specialists without delay.

Our relationships with programs and clinicians nationwide allow for faster placement and better alignment with each client’s needs.

Collaboration with Psychiatrists, Therapists, Legal Teams, and Schools

We keep all parties informed and aligned including clinical, legal, and educational.

This coordination prevents gaps, duplication, and confusion during high-stakes transitions.

Ongoing Treatment Planning and Post-Crisis Care Management

Once safety is restored, we stay involved as needed.

We track progress, adjust plans, and ensure families and providers remain connected as stability returns.

“I’ve sat with families at their most overwhelmed — when nothing makes sense, and the stakes are sky-high.

The first thing I offer is calm. The next is a plan.”

Who We Support

We work with families across the country seeking crisis intervention for young adults and adults (typically ages 17 to 30+), especially those experiencing:

  • Mental health breakdowns or rapid destabilization

  • Suicidal ideation or self-harm behaviors

  • Complex psychiatric diagnoses

  • Substance use or other process addictions (such as gaming, technology, or gambling)

  • Reentry needs following residential treatment, legal consequences, or hospitalization

Every situation is unique, but our approach remains the same. Calm, coordinated, and focused on safety and forward movement.

The Right Help. Right Now.

When everything feels urgent, you need someone who can respond with expertise, not fear.

Jodi Liston and the Liston Education Group team bring decades of experience helping families stabilize crisis moments and chart a long-term path toward healing.

Let us help you move forward.
