Dr Sarah Ullman
I provide high-stakes human harm risk assessment - with an emphasis on behavioral signal detection, escalation thresholds, and failure-mode identification - across military/veteran and civilian populations, as well as behavioral and cognitive-behavioral psychotherapy for at-risk populations, trauma, and PTSD.
My background includes a Ph.D. in clinical psychology with neuropsychology specialization, two master's degrees, and more than four decades of intensive clinical work with high-risk populations, and operational and field experience in crisis and mass casualty contexts where consequences are often grave and immediate. I am a Board Certified Expert in Traumatic Stress (BCETS), a certified CISM-trained emergency disaster responder, and I have served as a national lecturer, Keynote Speaker, and college/university professor of psychology.
Typical Engagements include: Rapid consults to pressure-test risk formulations and "what happens next" decision paths; Advisory review of protocols, escalation logic, and safety language in high-liability environments; Evaluation of whether a system/team is likely to miss obvious signals-and why; Targeted briefings and trainings for leadership and clinical teams on high-stakes risk recognition and response.
Core Domains: PTSD/trauma (military and civilian), and complex trauma; Suicidality and acute-risk dynamics; Arousal dysregulation, addiction interfaces, and behavioral instability; Obsession/compulsivity and related risk patterns; Executive dysfunction and high-impact behavioral outcomes; Man-made violence, terrorism-related trauma, and disaster-related stress injury.
