Suicidal 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.

Life can feel hopeless at times and maybe we turn to suicidal thoughts as a way out. Although thinking about suicide is scary to some, it really is a common complaint. Let's talk about how your thoughts may be exploring suicide and begin to get at the root of your feelings. Validation of this intense feeling is step one in moving toward a more hopeful way of living.

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/

Dr Paul Garden
Psychologist, Doctorate in Psychology, DPsych, MSc with Distinction, BSc First Class Honours.
Suicidal thinking can in itself be a frightening experience. Therapy helps to understand where the thoughts are coming from- how they developed- allowing you to make sense of them, and to take the necessary action to reduce and move on from the associated feelings.
