Basten and Associates
Psychologist, Masters in Clinical Psychology, Ph.D.
The main reason that people find themselves experiencing suicidal ideas is because they are in bad emotional pain and they can't see things improving. We call this the pain-hopelessness theory. Many people find comfort from their own suicidal thoughts (for instance, they feel so terrible now that they like to tell themselves that they can end it one day if things don't get better). Others and shocked and scared by their thoughts. No matter what is going on for you, if you are having suicidal thoughts, then it is time to take action straight away. Call and we can start to help and made a difference. When you feel hopeless, there is always something that can be done - you just haven't found it yet and maybe you need someone else in the ring with you fighting in your corner to find the way through.

Movement with Steph
Registered Psychotherapist, MCouns&PsychTh
More people than you thin experience suicidal thoughts. Sometimes they can be passive and fleeting other times they can be quite persistent and detailed. If you experience any suicidal thoughts it is a sign that there is some part of you (big or small) that needs attention. I work with clients to hold space for all of their emotions, including the pain, suffering, hurt, and unbearably tough emotions and experiences that can often lead us to have suicidal thoughts. I not only aim to help clients find strategies to manage and regulate these emotions and experiences, but I also aim to help them understand themselves and their needs better in order to help them find what they are truly seeking.

Clair Ramsden
Counsellor/Therapist, (Dip.Couns)
As a counsellor working with a suicidal client, I will ask the client if they have any thoughts of self-harm or suicide. I will also ask how serious they are about it and whether or not they would carry out this behaviour.
If they have any thoughts of suicide or self-harm, I will ask them to give me their thoughts on how they would commit this behaviour. As a counsellor, I would use a scale to measure how often these thoughts occur. After collecting these details, I can then determine if I can help my client or refer them to a crisis support team.
