Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
Having thoughts of suicide can feel frightening and deeply isolating, but you are not alone. Many people experience these thoughts during times of intense pain, hopelessness, or overwhelm.
Therapy offers a safe, nonjudgmental space to talk openly about what you’re going through. Together, we’ll focus on reducing the intensity of these thoughts, strengthening support, and creating a plan that helps you feel safer and more grounded. You don’t have to carry this pain by yourself.
If you’re in immediate danger, please call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline) or go to your nearest emergency room.

Dr. Howard Chusid
Licensed Professional Counselor, Ed.D, LMHC, NCC, MAC
Why do people want to commit suicide? What about this life and this world is making them say "they want to leave"? Each of us has our own secrets that we think know one will understand. Those dark places which many of us go too, appears to be the answer to our problems. But, is it? If we could show someone that their are alternative answers that will allow them to live and have a good life, that is what we need to do. Thoughts are just the beginning of the road whose ending finishes everything. We need to give people an alternative, that is rational and achievable. Something that they will be able to hang on too, that will make the difference.
