Suicidal
Andrea Barbour
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, PhD(ABD)
When we think of suicidal thoughts we most often think of active wishes and plans to die. While that's true another way of thinking about suicidal thoughts is that they are ways of communicating that you feel hopeless, alone, stuck and overwhelmed and the only way you can find an "out" is to die. I have experiencing in helping people just like you find hope and freedom again. We will work to understand your thoughts and your struggles and develop ways of helping you reconnect and make meaning of your world again.

Suicidal
Amanda S. Vaught
Psychologist, PsyD
I provide compassionate, nonjudgmental support for individuals experiencing suicidal thoughts. These thoughts are more common than many realize and often signal deep emotional pain rather than a true wish to die. Together, we work to understand the underlying causes, build coping strategies, and create a sense of safety and hope. Through evidence-based therapy, I help clients reduce distress, strengthen resilience, and reconnect with meaning, support, and reasons to live.

Suicidal
Dr. Stephanie Vaughn
Psychologist, Psy.D., DBT-LBC™
Most people have thought about suicide, but chronic suicidal thinking is something that needs to be addressed. Many therapists actually avoid working with people who are suicidal out of fear of liability. But someone needs to do it and our practice is committed to doing so. Learning to build a life worth living is a premise in DBT that helps when you're trying to let go of "suicide as a solution."
