Suicidal
Dr. Jessica De Leon
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Experiencing suicidal thoughts can feel frightening, isolating, and difficult to share with anyone. Therapy offers a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to talk openly about what you are experiencing, understand the pain beneath those thoughts, and develop strategies and supports to help you stay safe and move toward relief and hope.

Natasha Lacey

When emotional pain becomes overwhelming, thoughts of not wanting to be here can feel frightening and isolating. Therapy offers a nonjudgmental place to talk openly about what you are experiencing while identifying sources of distress, strengthening coping strategies, and building connection and support. When safety concerns are present, I work collaboratively with clients to determine appropriate supports and a plan for maintaining safety.

Suicidal
Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
If you are having thoughts of ending your life, you do not need someone to panic. You need someone who can hear it. Suicidal thinking is often the mind's way of saying that something in the current life has become unbearable — and that the person cannot yet see another way through. Therapy is a place to say the thing out loud, without performance, without crisis, without anyone rushing to fix it. The work is to find out what has become unbearable and to discover whether there are possibilities that the pain has made invisible.

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.
