Firearm-Informed Therapy™: Where Clinical Competence Meets Cultural Understanding
Mental health support shouldn't come at the cost of trust. Firearm-Informed Therapy™ is a groundbreaking approach that teaches clinicians how to navigate firearm conversations with neutrality, clarity, and respect. Designed by Amanda Hardin, this program equips providers to assess suicide risk, co-create safety plans, and intervene without judgment or fear-based assumptions.
We don’t just teach safety—we build bridges between two communities that need each other most.
What Sets Firearm-Informed Therapy™ Apart
Cultural Competence
We teach clinicians how to engage firearm-owning clients without bias, judgment, or fear—building trust that encourages open dialogue.
Practical Interventions
Gain tools for collaborative safety planning, voluntary storage options, and navigating legal pathways like ERPOs only when truly necessary.
Therapeutic Integrity
This model empowers therapists to stay clinically grounded while working within the unique realities and values of their clients’ lives.
This program helps bridge the gap between mental health care and gun ownership—through trust, not tension.
