My therapeutic approach in dealing with suicide ideation/thoughts is based on using Cognitive Behavior Therapist (CBT) coupled with Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). At the core, using CBT I combine myriad treatment and techniques that all share a common principle that thoughts, rather than external circumstances, cause feelings and behaviors. As such, I make the assumption that client manifestations of client feelings and behaviors originate from client cognitions, individual self-talk, attitudes, value systems and expectations.

Suicidal thoughts or suicidal ideations in young children and adolescents may manifest themselves indirectly through interest and/or preoccupation with suicide and death, or more directly when kids speak about "wanting to make it all go away" or thinking "the world would be a better place without me."
Other signs are social withdrawal, depression, aggressive and hostile behavior, declined interest in hobbies and activities previously enjoyed, feeling of worthlessness, self-hatred, expression of guilt or hopelessness about the future, neglecting personal appearance and grooming, reckless or risk-taking behavior, running away, changes in sleep, appetite, and energy level.
Seeking treatment for your child is essential. A trained mental health professional may pick up on subtle cues, address underneath thoughts and feelings, and assess individual risk factors and severity of the individual's condition.

PSYCHe, PLLC
Psychologist, PhD, LPC, PsyD, MSW, Marriage and Family Counselor, LCSW
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) was one of the first therapies to treat highly suicidal individuals on an outpatient basis. Because DBT considers suicide as the solution, not the actual problem itself, DBT therapists are focused on identifying the actual problems in order to assist with different, tangible solutions. Not only that, but DBT therapists are able to speak frankly about death instead of tiptoeing around it, treating patients with respect rather than patronizing with whispery tones and “concerned” looks. Within DBT, no person is treated as “fragile” and though the situation may be serious, we don’t take ourselves too seriously.

Reaching the point of thinking of suicide can be a scary place to be. It is important to talk to someone about it, and to find someone who will help you explore your feelings and make a plan to keep yourself safe.
