Welcome. Safe Harbor is the voice of alternative mental health.

Safe Harbor is a nonprofit agency founded in Los Angeles.
Dan Stradford, founder, stated,"Clearly an expanding sector of the population is seeking a 'safe harbor' from mental troubles and from traditional mental health practices.

"The mission of Safe Harbor is to assist and promote alternative (non-pharmaceutical) methods and practitioners. Our purpose is to provide education and choice to the public in the matter of alternative mental health practices."

This group was formed as an alternative to in-person monthly support group meetings.

This community tends to include former or current psychiatric clients as well as professionals. If you choose to post a message, your posting is public to this community and any member(s) may respond to your posting.

This is a support group community. Members at times offer advice, suggestions, and information. Safe Harbor assumes no responsibility for any advice, suggestions, recommendations or information given by members of this listserv. It is the responsibility of each member to use his or her judgment in using any information offered by members of this listserv.

Regarding changing or reducing medication, Safe Harbor recommends all such efforts be done with the assistance of a health professional.
