Suicidal Thoughts
Michael Elwan
Registered Social Worker, PhD Candidate (Mental Health), MSW, GradCertMH, DipPsych, MBA
Suicidal thoughts are often expressions of profound exhaustion, hopelessness, or feeling trapped rather than a wish to die. I work carefully and collaboratively with people experiencing suicidal ideation, prioritising safety, dignity, and transparency. My contribution in this area has been recognised through Australian national and state suicide prevention and mental health awards, grounded in lived experience, ethical practice, and deep respect for the seriousness of this work.

Suicidal Thoughts
Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns), Dip. Couns, Trauma Informed Yoga Cert, Pranayama Cert, Nidra Cert
I work primarily from a Rogerian or Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) approach using a conversational style listening patiently to you, always with empathy, genuineness and without judgement, to help find the solutions you desire for your life whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
Due to my background in mental health work, I have a good understanding of clients experiencing suicide/self harm thoughts and how they impact the person including the distress this can bring. I am able to utilise a psycho-educational approach to help you understand your emotional distress issues better and learn practical strategies to reduce risk of acting on these thoughts and support to increase emotional regulation skills. I can also use specific somatic (mind/body) therapy techniques within the therapy session to support greater healing of the underlying often subconscious issues without the need to discuss the details of those issues to find resolution. These gentle but effective techniques create a new positive sense of self, leaving often the carried sense of shame created from the experience of suicide or self-harm thinking behind.
My aim is to assist you with your emotional distress creating the suicide or self-harming thoughts to restore balance, happiness and inner peace (using the various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods) along with offering practical strategies that may be useful where suitable and desired by you. Whatever you are going through, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.

Suicidal Thoughts
Basten and Associates
Psychologist, Masters in Clinical Psychology, Ph.D.
The main reason that people find themselves experiencing suicidal ideas is because they are in bad emotional pain and they can't see things improving. We call this the pain-hopelessness theory. Many people find comfort from their own suicidal thoughts (for instance, they feel so terrible now that they like to tell themselves that they can end it one day if things don't get better). Others and shocked and scared by their thoughts. No matter what is going on for you, if you are having suicidal thoughts, then it is time to take action straight away. Call and we can start to help and made a difference. When you feel hopeless, there is always something that can be done - you just haven't found it yet and maybe you need someone else in the ring with you fighting in your corner to find the way through.

Suicidal Thoughts
Kristen Bayliss
Psychologist, Registered Psychologist, BSc, MA
Suicidal thoughts are a symptom of an underlying problem. Treatment is effective in many cases, but the first step is to ask for help. A person might have persistent thoughts of suicide and never suicide, but a person might also suicide after only briefly experiencing suicidal ideation. All suicidal ideation and behavior should be taken seriously, Let us help you.

Suicidal Thoughts
Shareen Birges
Registered Social Worker, BASS, GDYMH, MSW
In my experience suicidal thoughts are the mind's way of letting us know that we are overwhelmed by our emotional, mental & psychological pain. Supporting people around this issue requires empathy, understanding & compassion. This is important because individuals need to feel able to be open & honest about suicidal ideation & thoughts. As a professional I have worked with countless people around this issue, which often goes hand in hand with depression and/or a trauma background. I feel I have the skill to build the necessary relationship to effect change & to help people who are vulnerable to harm to learn to protect themselves.
