Suicidal Thoughts therapists in Newton, Illinois IL
Dr. Nicole Parkes
Psychologist, PsyD
I approach the delicate issue of suicidal thoughts with deep compassion and understanding. I recognize the profound pain and despair that can lead to such thoughts, enveloping one's existence in shadows. My commitment is to offer a safe, non-judgmental space where these feelings can be expressed and explored with sensitivity. Together, we will work to uncover and address the underlying issues, fostering a renewed sense of hope and purpose. It's a journey towards healing, where each step is taken with care and the ultimate goal is to rediscover the light within, illuminating a path away from despair and towards a life filled with meaning and connection.

Tara Thompson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Experiencing suicidal thoughts can profoundly affect individuals with addictions, relationship issues, or depression. A person battling addiction may view suicide as an escape from cravings, while relationship problems or depression may lead to feelings of hopelessness and self-harm ideation. To support them, I'd provide a safe space for expression, encourage open communication, and collaborate on coping strategies like seeking professional help and self-care activities, aiming to offer reassurance and empowerment.
