Suicidal Thoughts
Andrea Wiebe
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Hello, I’m Andrea Wiebe, a therapist specializing in trauma resolution through EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), with experience supporting individuals navigating complex mental health challenges, including suicidal ideation. I provide a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where clients can process past trauma, reduce emotional overwhelm, and begin to regain a sense of stability and hope.
I work with clients to identify and reprocess distressing memories, shift unhelpful beliefs and coping patterns, and develop healthier ways of relating to themselves and others. I also support clients in strengthening communication, building confidence in parenting and relationships, and approaching life’s challenges with calm, clarity, and self-compassion.
My goal is to help clients move beyond the effects of trauma and despair toward lives that are empowered, meaningful, and deeply connected—rooted in self-trust, resilience, and the capacity for hope, joy, and authentic relationships.

Cynthia Sewell, Embrace Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CH CHyp
In my experience Suicidal thoughts are the back door that we keep open "just in case". Many of the individuals that I have supported do not actually have a desire to die, they desire to be less depressed, less anxious, in less pain. Of course! You deserve to have more peace in your life. Let's ease the pain together.

Laura Jean Northey
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, BA
If you have ever thought about what it might be like to just not be here anymore, you are not alone. You are not broken, and you deserve to find a sense of hope, safety, and relief. Psychotherapy can help reduce suicidal thoughts by offering a space in which you are free and safe to be honest about your struggles and pain. You will be witnessed and understood, without judgement, which is something we all deserve.

Collaborative Care Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
At Collaborative Care Therapy, we offer compassionate and confidential support for individuals experiencing suicidal thoughts. Understanding the profound distress that can lead to such feelings, our therapists are highly trained in crisis intervention and suicide prevention techniques.
Our approach is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can openly discuss their feelings and thoughts. We focus on understanding the underlying issues contributing to suicidal ideation, such as depression, anxiety, trauma, or significant life stressors. By addressing these root causes, we aim to alleviate the intense emotional pain and hopelessness that often accompany suicidal thoughts.
Therapy may include cognitive-behavioral techniques to help change negative thought patterns, mindfulness practices to manage distress, and developing a personalized safety plan that includes coping strategies and support networks. Our goal is to empower clients, enhance their resilience, and restore hope, guiding them towards a more stable and fulfilling life.
At Collaborative Care Therapy, we are committed to supporting each client's journey back from the brink, reinforcing that they are not alone and that help is available. If you or someone you know is struggling with suicidal thoughts, we encourage you to reach out for professional help immediately.

Suicidal Thoughts
Laird Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
Suicidal thoughts are a sign of depression. If you have suicidal thoughts you may find it difficult to cope with certain aspects of your life. Talking about these feelings can really help. While everyone feels a little down from time to time, suicidal ideation is an indication that you feel overwhelmed and lost in your problems. Moderate to severe depression can lead you to self-harm or suicidal thoughts. My goal is to help you feel better by discussing the things that make you feel like ending your life and turn these thoughts around with adaptive, life-affirming strategies.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you are experiencing suicidal thoughts, you may feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or trapped in a level of pain that seems unending. You might feel hopeless, numb, or burdened by the belief that things will not improve. These thoughts can feel frightening and isolating, yet they are often a signal of deep distress rather than a true desire to die.
At Selah Counselling, we take suicidal thoughts seriously and respond with calm, compassionate care. Your safety is our priority. We work with you to reduce immediate risk, strengthen protective supports, and understand the factors contributing to your pain. Together, we focus on stabilizing your nervous system, addressing underlying depression, trauma, or stress, and rebuilding a sense of hope and connection. You do not have to navigate this alone.
If you are in immediate danger or feel unable to keep yourself safe, please seek urgent support by calling 911 or going to your nearest emergency department. In Canada, you can also call or text 988 for the Suicide Crisis Helpline, available 24 hours a day.
