Shayda Ewalt
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Suicidal thoughts are often a sign of overwhelming pain, not a desire to die, but a desire for relief. If you are experiencing these thoughts, you are not alone, and there is no judgment here. Together, we create safety, explore the depth of your suffering with compassion, and build internal and external supports to help you move through the pain without facing it alone.

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.

Greta Klaber
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ma, LMFT
I have extensive experience working with suicidal thoughts and ideation, and I approach this area with care, curiosity, and a deep respect for honesty. Suicidal thoughts are more common than many people realize, and I believe they deserve space in therapy—both to reduce distress and to explore the deeper themes they may be pointing to. In our work, I aim to create a space where you can speak openly without fear of judgment or alarmism, while also taking safety seriously. When the foundation is stable enough, we can explore the meanings behind these thoughts—whether they relate to pain, control, disconnection, or a desire for relief—and begin to understand what your system is trying to communicate.

Lori Karny LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Psychotherapist, Licensed Clinical Social Worker and MSG, Masters in Gerontology
Depression and suicidal thoughts are worthy of clinical attention. I offer therapy to support you to consider that you can improve your relationship with yourself and enhance your capacity to better cope with depressive thoughts and fears. I have experience with helping people with depression, bipolar disorder and persistent symptoms of depression. If you are currently suicidal, please go to your local Emergency Room. You can also contact 889 or 1877-330-6366 for emotional support. I will do all I can to support your stability and create a non-judemental clinial atmosphere to help you to articulate your emotions, conflicts or fears. I look forward to speaking with you.
