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."

Suicidal
Dr. Jessica De Leon
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Experiencing suicidal thoughts can feel frightening, isolating, and difficult to share with anyone. Therapy offers a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to talk openly about what you are experiencing, understand the pain beneath those thoughts, and develop strategies and supports to help you stay safe and move toward relief and hope.

Suicidal
Reiss Psychology Services, PLLC
Psychologist, PsyD
I work with teens experiencing suicidal ideation using Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. DBT offers structured skills in distress tolerance that help teens move through acute emotional pain without acting on it. I work collaboratively with each teen to build a personalized safety plan, identifying warning signs, coping strategies, and support contacts they can turn to before a crisis escalates. CBT complements this by helping teens identify and challenge the distorted thoughts that often underlie suicidal thinking, such as hopelessness or feeling like a burden, and replacing them with more balanced perspectives grounded in evidence. Throughout this work, I maintain close communication with parents and, when appropriate, coordinate with other providers to ensure the teen has a strong support system beyond our sessions.

Dina Hijazi
Psychologist, PhD, CSAT
If you're struggling with thoughts of suicide, you're not alone—and your pain is valid. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where we can talk openly about what you're feeling and begin to understand the emotional weight you're carrying. Using a compassionate, trauma-informed approach, we work to reduce immediate risk while exploring underlying issues such as depression, hopelessness, or past trauma. Together, we’ll develop coping tools, safety plans, and a path toward stability, support, and renewed hope. Help is here—you don’t have to face this alone.

Suicidal
Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Suicidal thoughts and self-injury impulses often come from parts of us trying to protect against unbearable pain, emotional overwhelm, or feelings of worthlessness. Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), I help clients gently explore and understand these reactive parts with compassion, reducing shame and building a sense of inner safety. Somatic regulation, mindfulness, and DBT-informed skills are integrated to strengthen self-regulation, improve coping, and decrease overwhelm. Together, we work on uncovering the deeper layers of distress and developing new ways to soothe and support yourself so that these protective impulses become less urgent and less consuming. My diagnostic expertise and collaboration with prescribers ensure comprehensive care when additional support is needed.
