Alison Edwards Therapy & Supervision
Psychologist, CBT Therapist, FMBPsS, MA (Hons), MSc, CertCouns, MSc
I first trained in 2004 in understanding suicide and supporting people who are feeling suicidal, and this has been a speciality area for me since then. I completed accredited training in both Applied Suicide Intervention Training and Mental Health First Aid in 2007. I have 9 years experience of working on a helpline for people who are feeling suicidal, and have been a trainer and mentor for a UK charity in training other helpline workers to support people who are experiencing suicidal thoughts. In a previous job I provided training to Trainee CBT Therapists on assessing suicidality and supporting people who are experiencing suicidal thoughts. I have attended CPD events over the years with the BABCP and BPS on suicide awareness, assessing suicide risk, and supporting people who self-harm. I attended the Suicide Prevention World Conference in September 2022, and ongoing CPD events with the British Psychological Society on non-suicidal self-harm.

Valerie Fearon
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CBT, Mindfulness, Counselling, Inner Child Truma
AS Counsellor working with Suicidal Thoughts.
Firstly ask the client "Are you having any thoughts of suicide or self-harm. If yes how long have you had these thoughts when they happen?.
Ask how serious do you feel about carrying out these thoughts. Or if you left here right now how what us the likelihood that you would follow through with your thoughts about killing your self.
For plan. I would ask. Have you given though to how you would kill/harm yourself.
As a Counsellor I would use 0-10 scale to measure how often do they have these thoughts. After I have asked these questions I would have a much better understanding of my clients current level of suicidality. Then I will be able to know if I can work with my client or refer them to their GP or someone else more experience in Suicidal cases.

Samantha Coleman
Therapist, MBACP Prof Dip
Suicidal thoughts can feel frightening, isolating, and overwhelming, and they are often linked to deep pain, hopelessness, exhaustion, or a sense that things cannot change. I offer a compassionate, calm, and non-judgemental space where these thoughts can be spoken about openly and taken seriously. My approach focuses on understanding what is happening beneath the surface and helping you feel less alone with what you are carrying.
