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.

Melanie Goetz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
If suicidal thoughts are something common that you've been living with for a long time, then weekly therapy may be appropriate for you. The limitation of weekly, telehealth sessions exists when your thoughts begin to create a plan and you notice your hopelessness rising, along with more and more intent to act on the plan. While suicidal ideation can be unpredictable, and I am able to support you in finding the level of care you need, if the time does come, I do not start a therapeutic relationship with someone who needs more care than I can currently give through Zoom sessions.
I volunteered as a Hotline Crisis Counselor at Didi Hirsch's Suicide Hotline before graduate school. My skills and technique for facing crises continued to develop through school and client experience.
When you're not in crisis, we'll be sure to emphasize techniques of building safety in your environment, in our relationship, as well as within your own body during and outside of our sessions. We'll emphasize where you feel some sense of hope and purpose and give space for any and all the existing ambiguity.

Dennis Sapire
Psychologist, JD PhD
Suicidal ideation is most commonly associated with depressive mental states. Though troubling, such thoughts are not uncommon and I welcome clients to share without fear that I will over-react. My goal and my role is to help and I understand that such thoughts are not necessarily dangerous.

Danielle Esses
Psychologist, PsyD
Suicidal thoughts are often a sign of profound pain, overwhelm, or feeling trapped, not a sign that something is wrong with you at your core. Therapy provides a space to take these experiences seriously, understand what drives them, and build safer, more effective ways of coping.

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.

Life Coach, view my credentials online at: www.recoveringfromwithin.com/credentialslongform
This is a major part of working with survivors of sexual trauma and CPTSD, as well as other trauma based conditions. Sometimes people wont remember they have experienced trauma or grief consciously, but the distress will linger as a reminder to look deeper and offer care. In IFS and TIST there is a parts approach. From attachment and neurobiology based care there are other approaches. From TCM, functional and integrative care there are more approaches in case it's physiologically driven (sleep, nutrition deprivation driven; toxin driven; ...). Each person and situation can be met with gentle curiosity and a good fit for the care needed.

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.

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.
