Registered Psychotherapist, RP (qualifying), MA-ExAT
Suicidal thoughts affect both the mind and the body, often showing up as emotional pain, numbness, hopelessness, or a sense of being overwhelmed. Approaches like art therapy and sensorimotor therapy gently engage both body and mind, offering safe, nonverbal ways to express distress, regulate the nervous system, and reconnect with moments of support, grounding, and meaning.

Barbara Freedman
Pre-Licensed Professional, M.Ed., OAMHP(Ontario Association of Mental Health Professionals-2704-G)
In my role at The Well(a safe outreach drop in day shelter for Woman and Children) I delivered support and guidance to those women who were facing homelessness, low-income housing, abuse, trauma, as well as suicide ideology. I have taken the ASIST (Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training)as I work with many clients who report suicidal feelings. So, if this is what you are thinking about you are not the only one and should not have to be alone with these thoughts and feelings. I am here to offer you a safe place in which to explore and seek resolution to them.

Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
Suicidal thoughts can be terrifying, overwhelming, and cause for concern. However, these thoughts can also be passive or existential in nature and represent a deeper desire for a change that isn't life-altering - maybe it's not about ending your life, it's about quitting your job or leaving your relationship. In session, you'll be given the opportunity to reflect and share your experiences. We will likely explore emotion regulation and distress tolerance strategies, in addition to healthy communication skills.
Note: police involvement is based on the client's safety. Unless the client is in immediate danger of harming themselves or others, authorities will not be contacted upon disclosure of suicidal thoughts alone.

Chris Cowan
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, Bth
First of all the majority of people have suicidal thoughts at some point in their lives. Addressing suicidal thoughts with a mindfulness approach, I provide a compassionate and non-judgmental space for clients to express and explore these feelings, helping them to observe their thoughts without becoming overwhelmed by them. This practice encourages a sense of detachment from distressing thoughts, fostering a clearer perspective on life's challenges. I will walk with you through this and shift your focus from the challenges and overwhelm to being to see life in a hopeful way.
