The Work

Mark is a behavioral threat assessment professional and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with over two decades of experience helping organizations identify risk, respond to crisis, and recover from trauma. He brings a mental health dimension to threat assessment that strengthens how organizations identify risk, engage with persons of concern, and implement effective interventions. He spent eight years building and leading one of the first Director level behavioral threat management programs in California at UCLA, a model that others in the field have looked to as a benchmark. Mark has presented at the Association of European Threat Assessment Professionals (AETAP) in Paris and maintains deep relationships with leading forensic psychologists and law enforcement professionals across the country and abroad.

Services

Behavioral Threat Assessment

Mark provides expert behavioral threat assessment consultation to organizations managing persons of concern — individuals whose behavior raises concern for potential violence, self-harm, harassment, stalking, or other threatening conduct. Drawing on his experience building and leading UCLA's Behavioral Threat Management Team, Mark brings a clinical lens that complements law enforcement and HR perspectives to produce more complete and accurate risk assessments.

Mark works with organizations on a retainer, hourly, or project basis to support:

  • Individual case consultation on high-risk persons of concern
  • Threat identification, intelligence gathering, and behavioral analysis
  • Risk assessment and implementation of mitigation strategies
  • Coordination with law enforcement, legal, HR, and mental health partners
  • Development of behavioral intervention teams and threat management protocols

Organizational Crisis & Critical Incident Response

Mark is available for individual case consultation, particularly when your organization needs a practitioner with experience managing complex, potentially high-risk situations. Seeking outside consultation can provide new perspectives when your team is feeling stuck or facing something unfamiliar.

Mark works with organizations on a retainer, hourly, or project basis to support:

  • Crisis response planning and critical incident management
  • Development of organizational policy, protocols, and systems
  • Building and strengthening behavioral intervention and crisis response teams
  • Workplace trauma response and organizational recovery after critical incidents
  • Creating and aligning crisis management and violence prevention strategies

He has connections across mental health, education, security, and law enforcement and can help your team build the partnerships needed to provide wraparound support.

How I Work

Learn Forward, Together

Progress and momentum drive all achievers, individuals and institutions alike. Moving forward together means no one gets left behind.

Responding Well

When an issue arises, there's waiting, reacting, following policy, and most importantly, responding well. A strong response confirms your organization lives its values and that people feel genuinely cared for at work.

Education First

The priority is always educating your teams on how to use new processes, not just delivering a training and walking away.

Organizations that invest in their people before a crisis don't just respond better. They recover faster and build lasting trust.
