PSYCHe, PLLC
Psychologist, PhD, DBT-LBC™, 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.

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."

Dr. Joe Rustum
Psychologist, PsyD, License Psychologist
I help clients who are experiencing suicidal thoughts, hopelessness, emotional overwhelm, or the feeling that they cannot keep going the way things are. Therapy provides a safe and direct space to talk honestly about these thoughts without judgment. Together, we focus on reducing immediate distress, strengthening coping strategies, increasing support, and addressing the patterns that contribute to feeling trapped or hopeless. My goal is to help clients find safety, stability, and a path forward.

Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
If you are having thoughts of ending your life, you do not need someone to panic. You need someone who can hear it. Suicidal thinking is often the mind's way of saying that something in the current life has become unbearable — and that the person cannot yet see another way through. Therapy is a place to say the thing out loud, without performance, without crisis, without anyone rushing to fix it. The work is to find out what has become unbearable and to discover whether there are possibilities that the pain has made invisible.

Reshma Rampersad
Psychologist, Psy.D.
My approach to suicidal thoughts is rooted in compassion, safety, and hope. I provide a nonjudgmental space where you can openly express your feelings and find relief from overwhelming distress. Using evidence-based approaches such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, emotion regulation strategies, and strength-based support, we work together to understand your pain, develop coping tools, and reconnect with a sense of meaning and possibility. You don’t have to go through this alone—I’m here to support you every step of the way.
