Pasadena, California therapist: Christian Holmes, marriage and family therapist
Suicidal

Christian Holmes

Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
Suicidal thoughts are some of the hardest things to admit to. People often worry "What happens if I say something?" or "How I will this affect my friends, family, spouse?" The first thing to know about suicidal thoughts is you're not alone and secondly, suicidal thoughts are often not really about suicide, it's about getting the pain to stop. In our work together, I will help you identify, process and overcome that pain. I take a collaborate approach where we address the stressors, traumas, family dynamics, and negative beliefs that keep you stuck so you can enjoy life again.

Thousand Oaks, California therapist: Kristin Robert, marriage and family therapist
Suicidal

Kristin Robert

Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
I work with suicidal thoughts by approaching them not only as a safety concern, but as meaningful signals that something in a person’s life has become unbearable or unsustainable. Treatment focuses on understanding what these thoughts are tied to, stabilizing distress, and helping clients move toward a life that feels more livable while maintaining clear attention to safety.

Brooklyn, New York therapist: Greta Klaber, marriage and family therapist
Suicidal

Greta Klaber

Marriage and Family Therapist, Ma, LMFT
I have extensive experience working with suicidal thoughts and ideation, and I approach this area with care, curiosity, and a deep respect for honesty. Suicidal thoughts are more common than many people realize, and I believe they deserve space in therapy—both to reduce distress and to explore the deeper themes they may be pointing to. In our work, I aim to create a space where you can speak openly without fear of judgment or alarmism, while also taking safety seriously. When the foundation is stable enough, we can explore the meanings behind these thoughts—whether they relate to pain, control, disconnection, or a desire for relief—and begin to understand what your system is trying to communicate.

Riverside, California therapist: Cindy Lee Collins, licensed professional counselor
Suicidal

Cindy Lee Collins

Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
I specialize in working with adults experiencing suicidal thoughts, suicidal ideation, and feelings of hopelessness or emotional overwhelm. These experiences can range from passive thoughts of not wanting to be here, to more persistent or intrusive thoughts during periods of high distress. They are often linked to underlying pain, trauma, depression, or long-standing emotional burdens that have become difficult to carry alone. My approach is grounded in safety, stabilization, and careful pacing. The initial focus of therapy is on reducing distress, increasing emotional regulation, and strengthening internal and external supports so that you are not navigating these experiences in isolation. I use trauma-informed, evidence-based modalities including EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and the Comprehensive Resource Model (CRM) when appropriate, to address the underlying experiences that contribute to suicidal thinking. These approaches support the nervous system in processing overwhelming emotional material while building greater capacity for stability and resilience. I also incorporate nervous system regulation and attachment-focused work, with an emphasis on helping clients develop stronger internal safety, self-compassion, and a more grounded sense of connection to life and relationships. Therapy is collaborative and paced carefully, with ongoing attention to your level of readiness and safety throughout the process. Many clients find that as underlying pain is processed and coping capacity increases, suicidal thoughts become less frequent, less intense, and less central to their daily experience, replaced gradually by a greater sense of stability, meaning, and agency.

John Jakubowski

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT MACP LPCC
It's actually normal for people to be inquisitive about life and death - it's the great mystery. If you're going beyond this into planning, and fantasizing about how to kill yourself, pick up the phone now and call 911. Your life is precious, and there are so many connections that perhaps you have lost sight of. The pain will go away and it will change, but it starts by reaching out.

Having suicidal thoughts is a sign that clients are going through an immense amount of psychological and emotional pain. These thoughts, although scary or comforting, bring a sign of relief. It's says, I can make an end to this suffering. But that isn't the only option there is. Therapy can help you find meaning or cultivate reasons why life can be worth staying, or at least tolerable.
