Life can be difficult, but finding help doesn't have to be. It is important to get help if you or someone you know is experiencing a crisis or is thinking about suicide. When life hits hard it is normal to have thoughts that it would be easier to deal with if you were not alive. Please reach out for help. I have a specialty in this field as a crisis response worker and can help you or someone you know cope with suicidal ideation/behaviors and or self-harm thoughts/behaviors.

Kevin Jones
Psychologist, MACP
My approach to supporting clients who are struggling with thoughts of not wanting to live focuses first on creating a safe, compassionate, and steady space where they feel understood and never judged. I work collaboratively to explore the emotional pain, stress, or circumstances contributing to these feelings while helping clients develop grounding skills, safety strategies, and healthier ways of coping. Using evidence-informed approaches, I support clients in reducing distress, strengthening protective supports, and reconnecting with a sense of hope and meaning. My goal is to ensure clients feel safe, supported, and empowered as we work together toward stability, resilience, and emotional healing.

Angela Popovici
Psychologist, Registered Provisional Psychologist, B.Sc Psych, MACP
I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental, and safe space for individuals experiencing suicidal thoughts or feelings of hopelessness. I understand that these thoughts often come from deep emotional pain, and believes that healing begins with feeling heard, valued, and supported without fear or shame.
Using an integrative approach I help clients explore underlying emotions, build coping strategies, and reconnect with personal strengths and support systems. Her approach emphasizes safety, self-compassion, and small, achievable steps toward hope and healing.
I provide a confidential environment where clients can express their feelings safely, develop resilience, and rediscover a sense of meaning and purpose—one caring step at a time.
If you or someone you know is in immediate danger, please reach out to local emergency services or contact the Talk Suicide Canada Service by dialing 988 for 24/7 support.
