Suicidal Ideation is so common ( normal) that SID is a well known abbreviation for it. Bring it in and lets get friendly with it.

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.

Liberation Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
I work with many people who experience suicidal thoughts and I take a calm, non-reactive approach to talking about suicide. I am comfortable talking about death and dying, and I also have experience as a deathcare worker, which informs my ability to sit with these conversations without panic or judgment. Many people are afraid to be honest about suicidal thoughts because they worry they will be overreacted to or not understood. In therapy, you can speak frankly and openly. I respect people’s autonomy while also taking their pain seriously, and we work together to understand what makes life feel unbearable and how we might work together to feel grounded, connected, and cared for.

PSYCHe, PLLC
Psychologist, PhD, DBT-LBC™, LPC, PsyD, MSW, Marriage and Family Counselor, LCSW
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) was one of the first therapies to treat highly suicidal individuals on an outpatient basis. Because DBT considers suicide as the solution, not the actual problem itself, DBT therapists are focused on identifying the actual problems in order to assist with different, tangible solutions. Not only that, but DBT therapists are able to speak frankly about death instead of tiptoeing around it, treating patients with respect rather than patronizing with whispery tones and “concerned” looks. Within DBT, no person is treated as “fragile” and though the situation may be serious, we don’t take ourselves too seriously.
