If you are struggling with suicidal thoughts, it can feel isolating and overwhelming—but you don’t have to face it alone. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space to talk openly about these feelings and work collaboratively to identify coping strategies, safety planning, and support systems. Using evidence-based approaches tailored to your needs, I help clients navigate this difficult time with care, understanding, and practical tools to regain hope and stability. Your life is valuable, and reaching out for support is a courageous first step toward healing.

Gregor Nathanael Schwarz
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I provide specialized, compassionate support for individuals struggling with suicidal ideation, self-harm, and intense emotional crisis. My approach is rooted in safety-first, evidence-based frameworks, utilizing Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)—in which I have extensive specialized training—and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you navigate periods of profound hopelessness. Drawing upon my comprehensive clinical background—including specialized outpatient DBT and post-doctoral training in externalizing problems—I bring a depth of experience in managing high-risk behaviors and complex emotional dysregulation. I work collaboratively with you to develop personalized safety plans, identify warning signs, and build the distress tolerance skills needed to manage overwhelming emotions. If you are struggling, please know you do not have to carry this burden alone; my goal is to provide a non-judgmental, stable environment where we can prioritize your immediate safety while working toward long-term stabilization, emotional healing, and a renewed sense of purpose.
