Suicidal thoughts can be scary, frustrating, and annoying, and can have a person feeling many different ways. Why our suicidal thoughts are occurring, whether they are intrusive or not, and how we understand and interact with them will impact treatment massively. when working with clients I aim to create a treatment protocol that is tailored to, and informed by, a client.

Cara Briscoe
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
When life feels so challenging and hope is lost, suicidal thoughts and/or desires to self-harm may arise. I am here to support you in creating a safety plan, developing additional coping mechanisms, providing tools for assessing risk and building upon your resources. While your safety is always my first priority, I also welcome open, honest and non-judgemental conversations about suicidal ideation and self-harm that go beyond surface level safety concerns. I acknowledge the social stigma that exists around topics of suicide and self-harm, which is why I strive to provide a safe space that you may not have otherwise.

Joshua Lewis
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CT
Psychotherapy can often be beneficial for people who are experiencing chronic suicidal ideation and behavior. However, when individuals are at risk of suicide it is essential that they receive a higher level of care and weekly psychotherapy is not always sufficient on its own to protect those who are in crisis and adequately address risk. Once an individual is no longer in crisis, therapy to treat the underlying causes of suicidal ideation or behavior is typically recommended. The psychotherapy model considers hopelessness to be the strongest contributing factor to suicidal ideation, and a large part of crisis intervention and post crisis counseling aims to restore hope. An individual who continues in therapy once the point of crisis has passed will likely explore ways to resist urges to self-harm, address the factors that led to suicidal thoughts, and create a plan that includes coping strategies and methods to address suicidal thoughts in the event that they recur.
