Suicidal
Amanda S. Vaught
Psychologist, PsyD
I provide compassionate, nonjudgmental support for individuals experiencing suicidal thoughts. These thoughts are more common than many realize and often signal deep emotional pain rather than a true wish to die. Together, we work to understand the underlying causes, build coping strategies, and create a sense of safety and hope. Through evidence-based therapy, I help clients reduce distress, strengthen resilience, and reconnect with meaning, support, and reasons to live.

Stephanie Larsen @ Healthy Minds Psychology Group
Psychologist, PsyD
Hi! Congratulations on taking the first step in your journey of caring more deeply for yourself! I specialize in working with adolescents and young adults working to overcome their significant anxiety and depressive symptoms. Sometimes life can beat you down and it can be hard to get relief from the constant negative thoughts. I've spent much of my career working with clients on re-establishing their identity, challenging and changing their inner dialog, and supporting them on climbing out of the dark hole that depression can be. Ultimately, I strongly believe in building a close therapeutic relationship where you can feel safe to explore and move past your anxious and depressive thought patterns, learn to support yourself, become more confident in your identity and purpose, and my goal is to help you achieve the goals you've set out to meet! Feel free to reach out and see if we can be a good fit to help move you closer to your goals and relief!

Suicidal
Claire Karakey
Therapist, LPC, MC
Suicidal Ideations (or suicidal thoughts) refers to thinking about or planning suicide – the act of ending one’s own life. It is not uncommon for people to experience suicidal thoughts when they are faced with times of extreme stress, serious injury or illness, or mental struggles such as Depression.
When a person feels trapped, hopeless, or is having immense emotional or physical pain, thoughts of ending life as a way out can occur. There are biological, psychological, social, and environmental factors that can increase the risk of suicide – these factors coupled with adverse life events and a belief there is no other way out can lead to suicidal ideations.
Passive Suicidal Ideation is when a person sometimes wishes they were dead but do not have any actual plans to commit suicide. However, when the thoughts turn to actual intent to kill oneself and include plans as to how to carry it out, that is called Active Suicidal Ideation.
Therapy can be very helpful for an individual with suicidal thoughts. Hopeless feelings can be improved when viewed from different perspectives and a therapist can offer those insights. Support from friends, family, and groups can be helpful for continued connection and encouragement both during and after therapy.

Suicidal
Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Suicidal thoughts and self-injury impulses often come from parts of us trying to protect against unbearable pain, emotional overwhelm, or feelings of worthlessness. Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), I help clients gently explore and understand these reactive parts with compassion, reducing shame and building a sense of inner safety. Somatic regulation, mindfulness, and DBT-informed skills are integrated to strengthen self-regulation, improve coping, and decrease overwhelm. Together, we work on uncovering the deeper layers of distress and developing new ways to soothe and support yourself so that these protective impulses become less urgent and less consuming. My diagnostic expertise and collaboration with prescribers ensure comprehensive care when additional support is needed.
