Jen Johnston Collaborative Change Counseling and Wellness
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LCSW, LMHC
The clinicians in our group use the evidenced based approach of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) when working with individuals struggling with suicidal thoughts and/or self injury. This approach blends acceptance and change strategies to help decrease these thoughts and behaviors that are often interfering with living and full and meaningful life. Specific Distress Tolerance, Emotion Regulation, Interpersonal Effectiveness, and Mindfulness skills are taught as part of this approach, and clients are encouraged to take action steps to find alternate means of coping with difficult thoughts and emotions. Two of our clinicians are comprehensively trained and sit on DBT Consultation Teams. The other two utilize a DBT informed approach when working with individuals for whom comprehensive DBT is not indicated.

Having thoughts of suicide can feel frightening and deeply isolating, but you are not alone. Many people experience these thoughts during times of intense pain, hopelessness, or overwhelm.
Therapy offers a safe, nonjudgmental space to talk openly about what you’re going through. Together, we’ll focus on reducing the intensity of these thoughts, strengthening support, and creating a plan that helps you feel safer and more grounded. You don’t have to carry this pain by yourself.
If you’re in immediate danger, please call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline) or go to your nearest emergency room.
