At SHFT, we work with external providers, schools, and care teams to ensure children, teens, adults, and families receive timely, high-quality mental health support.
From early concerns to urgent situations, we offer same-day, in-person care to help address needs before they escalate and reduce unnecessary emergency department utilization.
We collaborate with schools, primary care practices, and other mental health providers to bridge gaps in care, support smooth transitions, and provide consultation and guidance when additional clinical support is needed. Our approach emphasizes early intervention, continuity between levels of care, and clear communication with referring providers to help clients stay supported and engaged.
How SHFT partnerS with other providers
Crisis & Urgent Care
Provides immediate, in-person support for clients experiencing acute or escalating concerns. Serves as an alternative to the emergency department for evaluation, stabilization, and safety planning, and helps determine next steps in coordination with your team.
After-Hours Support
Provides time-sensitive clinical guidance for urgent situations that arise outside of standard office hours. Supports providers and their clients in determining appropriate next steps when immediate input is needed.
Bridge & Transition Care
Provides short-term, interim support for clients during waitlists, provider transitions, or temporary gaps in care. Maintains continuity while longer-term care is arranged in coordination with your team.
Clinical Consultation
Provides case-based consultation for providers seeking diagnostic clarification, support with complex presentations, or guidance on treatment planning. Offers additional clinical perspective when a client is not responding to treatment or a fresh evaluation is needed.
Urgent Medication Evaluation
Provides timely psychiatric evaluations for clients who may benefit from medication initiation, adjustment, or stabilization. Supports coordination with ongoing care plans and prescribing needs.
School Support
Supports schools in managing student mental health needs, including safety concerns. Conducts safety assessments, determines appropriate return to school, and provides treatment recommendations to guide next steps in care planning.
Primary Care Support
Provides comprehensive evaluations for patients referred by primary care providers. Assesses symptoms, clarifies severity, and determines the appropriate level and type of mental health care to guide next steps and connection to services.
Resource Navigation
Provides guidance to help providers connect clients with appropriate community-based resources, including specialty programs and higher levels of care. Leverages SHFT’s network to support appropriate referrals and access to care.

shft in the community
At SHFT, we believe mental health care extends beyond the therapy room and into the communities where people live, work, and gather. We partner with local organizations, schools, and businesses to bring meaningful conversations about wellness into everyday settings.
In addition to participating in community events, we host gatherings of our own. From journaling workshops and creative art experiences to movement-based sessions and self-care events, we create opportunities for people to engage with mental health in ways that feel practical, interactive, and accessible.
Whether we’re leading a workshop, joining a panel, or sharing tools at a wellness fair, our goal is to bring practical mental health strategies into the community.
Want SHFT at your next wellness event? Let’s make it happen.
