Registered Psychotherapist, RP, MACP, BSc
Suicidal thoughts can be scary, frustrating, and annoying, and can have a person feeling many different ways. Why our suicidal thoughts are occurring, whether they are intrusive or not, and how we understand and interact with them will impact treatment massively. when working with clients I aim to create a treatment protocol that is tailored to, and informed by, a client.

Suicidal thoughts can be characterized by thoughts and preoccupations with death and suicide. A CBT and Narrative approach will be used to explore your relationship with these thoughts. By externalizing these thoughts we will be able to explore and understand the narrative seperatly from your identity. By understanding you thoughts and behaviours we can also start the process of change.

Cara Briscoe
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
When life feels so challenging and hope is lost, suicidal thoughts and/or desires to self-harm may arise. I am here to support you in creating a safety plan, developing additional coping mechanisms, providing tools for assessing risk and building upon your resources. While your safety is always my first priority, I also welcome open, honest and non-judgemental conversations about suicidal ideation and self-harm that go beyond surface level safety concerns. I acknowledge the social stigma that exists around topics of suicide and self-harm, which is why I strive to provide a safe space that you may not have otherwise.
