Suicidal Thoughts
Mind By Design®
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychology and Coaching Clinics
Suicide is an unfortunate reality that many people have some sort of connection with either because they have faced suicidal thoughts, or they know someone who committed suicide. People with suicidal thoughts (the idea of killing themselves) typically feel like suicide is the only choice. Those people might feel desperation, an overwhelming, constant emotional pain, and a belief that their life has no worth. It is a hard reality to face as suicidal ideation can be caused by a multitude of factors ranging from genetic to environmental factors. Ultimately, suicide claims that more lives than homicide and war every year.

Jeffrey Driscoll
Pre-Licensed Professional, Counsellor, Master of Psychology Graduate Student , yoga life coach, Ontario certified teacher
After volunteering with a crisis center I developed a passion for helping people find new hope while accepting life as it is. This requires us to acknowledge how suicidal thoughts are a normal part of the human experience, and how to move be ourselves forward finding our own personal power in the midst of severe odds. We move beyond safety planning to an exploration of how to move towards well being.

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.
