Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, CCC, RP (Qualifying)
Experiencing suicidal thoughts can feel isolating and overwhelming, but reaching out for support is a powerful step toward healing. I specialize in suicidal thoughts therapy, offering a compassionate and non-judgmental space to help individuals navigate these difficult emotions. Through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and crisis intervention techniques, I work with clients to understand the underlying causes of their thoughts, develop coping strategies, and find hope for the future. If you or someone you know is struggling with suicidal ideation, I am here to offer support, safety, and guidance toward emotional recovery.

Denelle O'Reilly
Psychologist
I support children, adolescents, and adults experiencing suicidal thoughts with a compassionate, non-judgmental, and safety-focused approach. I strive to create a space where clients feel heard and understood, even when things feel overwhelming or hopeless. Together, we work to understand what is contributing to these thoughts, strengthen coping strategies, and build a plan for staying safe during difficult moments. Using evidence-based approaches, I help clients develop emotional regulation skills, reconnect with sources of support, and find ways to move through intense feelings with greater stability and hope.

Melinda Freitas
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, RCC, CCS
Therapy looks very different depending on whether someone is facing a personal crisis or grieving a loss. Suicide-focused counselling offers immediate, structured support to keep an individual safe during their darkest moments. Suicide loss counselling provides a gentle, trauma-informed space for survivors processing the devastating death of a loved one. I utilize both trauma-informed and compassionate-therapeutic approaches for this work.
