Dr Jacob Ellwood
Psychologist, PsychD, Cpsychol
I provide a safe space for clients to explore their feelings of suicidality, with the aim of reducing the risk of suicide attempts. I will never judge a client for having these thoughts or urges. My priority is the safety of my clients, and I work with them to figure out what will keep them safe.

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.

Claire de la Varre
Therapist, PhD, HGDipP
Suicidal thoughts can arise during periods of intense emotional pain, overwhelm, disconnection, or depression. They are a signal that something important needs care and attention. Experiencing these thoughts does not mean you truly want to die, but rather that you want relief from suffering. It is hard to talk to other people about such feelings, but as a psychotherapist I am trained to listen to whatever you have to say and can help you address your emotional needs more appropriately, as well as providing healthy coping strategies. Please reach out if you are struggling.

Registered Psychotherapist, M Phil - Counselling & Psychotherapy; M A Psychology
When depression leads to feelings of being trapped and hopeless, excessive guilt or shame, being in a heightened state of anxiety, experiencing changes in personality, routine or sleeping patterns, consuming drugs or alcohol in excess, feeling isolated, talking about being a burden to others, engaging in risky behaviour, severe remorse and self criticism, unable to experience pleasure form normally pleasurable life events and feeling regretful about being alive, then it can lead to the individual thinking about or planning to end their life. These thoughts can range from a detailed plan to a fleeting consideration.

Julie Jenner
Counsellor/Therapist, BA(Hons), NCS Senior Accredited
Suicidal thoughts come in many different forms. They might be vague thoughts like, if I died all this would go away. They might be more certain with an actual plan in mind for what you want to do. However these thoughts appear in your mind, they are pointing at a level of pain you are feeling that can feel overwhelming and that you see no way out of. We often cannot see a solution by ourselves. If we keep our pain inside, we deny ourselves the chance to see another perspective. Sometimes just being given permission to say it all out loud can bring enough release to then start considering alternative solutions. Don't suffer alone. Give yourself a chance to see if there could be a different way out of your pain. Whatever you feel is ok, your thoughts are your own, and only you can decide if you want to try something different/
