Suicidal Thoughts
Mandy Hines
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, QS, MCAP
Fleeting suicidal thoughts can be normal. It’s when the the thoughts increase and/or lead to planning or intent. Feeling suicidal is scary. Through intensive safety planning, Baker Acts can be avoidable. It is my goal to utilize the least restrictive level of care to resolve intensive feelings of pain, helplessness, and hopelessness.
With over 15 years experience working in crisis mental health, I am comfortable working within crisis intervention and safety planning.

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.

Monica Buttafava
Counselor/Therapist, M.S., LMHC
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.
