Suicidal
Benedict Choi, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, EMDR, IFS Informed
Suicidal Thoughts are not permanent nor are they always signs that you are actually wanting to kill yourself. For clients that come in with passive suicidal ideation, it is critical to first understand this and then to get curious about why there may be a part that may be considering not wanting to be in this world. anymore. It is also important to pay attention to the intentions of these parts that are wanting client to self harm, as they may be pointing to deeper unmet needs and longings. I am skilled in safety planning, and have been trained in CAMS (Collaborative Assessment and Management of Suicidality), an evidence-based approach to treating people suffering from serious thoughts of self-harm.

Empowered Wellbeing, Decolonizing Intersectional and Integrative Complex Trauma & Dissociation Recovery Support
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.

New Beginnings Christian Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Experiencing suicidal thoughts can feel overwhelming, frightening, and isolating. In therapy, we provide a safe, nonjudgmental space to talk openly about these feelings, explore their underlying causes, and develop immediate safety strategies. Through compassionate, Christ-centered guidance and evidence-based support, clients learn coping skills, regain hope, and build a path toward emotional and spiritual healing, empowerment, and renewed purpose. Immediate help and safety planning are always the first priority.

Jennifer Canu
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Suicidal thoughts, as most mental health symptoms, are on a spectrum ranging from fleeting thoughts/statements of wanting to die (suicide expression) to active suicidal thoughts with a plan and intent. I have over 15 years experience treating suicidal thoughts of varying intensity and risk. With my client's consent, I partner with external supports such as psychiatrists, family members, schools and physicians in safety planning, treatment planning and after-care planning following a 5150/5585 hold or hospitalization. When a child or teen experiences suicidal thoughts, I engage parents/caregivers in safety planning and developing strategies to address underlying triggers and dynamics that may contribute to suicidal thoughts.

Megan Hubert
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, AMFT#159028, APCC#20648
I approach suicidal thoughts with compassion, sensitivity, and without judgment, recognizing that these experiences are often connected to deep emotional pain, hopelessness, or feeling overwhelmed. I provide a safe and supportive space where clients can openly share their experiences, explore underlying concerns, and work toward understanding, connection, and hope while building coping skills and support systems.
