Probably many more people have suicidal thoughts than we generally recognise. For most people, these thoughts are fleeting moments easily dismissed; but for some people, these thoughts become intrusive and the temptation to act upon them increases. My approach is to understand why an individual is experiencing suicidal ideation and to design an individual course of treatment to remove these thoughts.

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.

Registered Social Worker, BASS, GDYMH, MSW
In my experience suicidal thoughts are the mind's way of letting us know that we are overwhelmed by our emotional, mental & psychological pain. Supporting people around this issue requires empathy, understanding & compassion. This is important because individuals need to feel able to be open & honest about suicidal ideation & thoughts. As a professional I have worked with countless people around this issue, which often goes hand in hand with depression and/or a trauma background. I feel I have the skill to build the necessary relationship to effect change & to help people who are vulnerable to harm to learn to protect themselves.
