Suicidal
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.

Shoreline Psychological
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Our clinicians are well-trained in risk assessment, especially in cases involving suicidal thoughts, plans, or means. Trained to ask difficult but essential questions, we carefully evaluate and address each situation with great sensitivity, prioritzing safety while offering compassionate support. We utilize evidence-based intervention to those in crisis, like CBT or DBT as well as for long-term intervention.

Greta Klaber
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ma, LMFT
I have extensive experience working with suicidal thoughts and ideation, and I approach this area with care, curiosity, and a deep respect for honesty. Suicidal thoughts are more common than many people realize, and I believe they deserve space in therapy—both to reduce distress and to explore the deeper themes they may be pointing to. In our work, I aim to create a space where you can speak openly without fear of judgment or alarmism, while also taking safety seriously. When the foundation is stable enough, we can explore the meanings behind these thoughts—whether they relate to pain, control, disconnection, or a desire for relief—and begin to understand what your system is trying to communicate.

Danielle Esses
Psychologist, PsyD
Suicidal thoughts are often a sign of profound pain, overwhelm, or feeling trapped, not a sign that something is wrong with you at your core. Therapy provides a space to take these experiences seriously, understand what drives them, and build safer, more effective ways of coping.

Elana Blumenthal
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, PsyA
I work with clients who may have suicidal thoughts and/or ideations, but not with clients who are actively suicidal. There need to be active safety valves in place with a client and ongoing stability in working with someone with suicidal thoughts and ideations.
