Background

About Mary Obrien

As a mental health professional embedded within a police department, I specialize in clinical mental health, crisis response and community care. I work alongside law enforcement to support individuals experiencing behavioral health challenges—bridging the gap between public safety and behavioral health services. My role is rooted in compassion, collaboration, and real-time intervention. Whether it's de-escalating high-stress situations or connecting individuals with the resources they need, I’m passionate about promoting recovery, reducing stigma, and building a safer, more supportive community for all. Let’s connect if you’re interested in crisis intervention, co-responder models, behavioral health partnerships, or just want to exchange ideas on how we can better serve vulnerable populations.
