Suicidal thoughts highlight a significant junction between severe emotional anguish and unhealed relationship trauma. Suicide thoughts might be a symptom of hopelessness stemming from experiences of abandonment, abuse, or neglect, which are woven into the fabric of attachment ties. Trauma, whether explicit or implicit, can deepen the sense of hopelessness and isolation, amplifying the intensity of suicidal ideation. Therapy becomes a lifeline amidst the darkness, offering a safe space to explore the underlying attachment dynamics and process the echoes of past traumas. By fostering compassionate connections, addressing the root causes of distress, and developing coping strategies, individuals can begin to untangle the knots of suicidal thoughts, reclaiming a sense of hope, resilience, and purpose in their journey towards healing and renewed vitality.

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.

Risk assessments and resources will be first and foremost. I hope to develop a therapeutic alliance with you so you never feel alone when life gets tough. I truly stand by my motto, if there is a way in there is a way out. I will help you see through the darkness.
When life is painful, suicide can seem like the only option. We see these thoughts as the mind's best attempt to find a solution to the pain and suffering that you're experiencing - that doesn't mean that it is. Our prior experiences - the things that have been done to us and perhaps the decisions that we made can leave us feeling stuck in the belief that there is something wrong with us, that we're worthless, and that things will never get better.
Hear us when we say that there is NOTHING wrong with you - that you ARE enough - and that you CAN rise from the darkness you currently feel - yes, EVEN if it doesn't feel this way now. We want to help you understand how you got stuck in these patterns of thinking, release the past into the past, learn effective and adaptive coping strategies that will keep you alive so that you can build a life that you want, and are excited, to live.
In addition to supporting individuals who are experiencing suicidal thoughts, we also work with those who have attempted suicide as well as family members who are impacted by those who are experiencing suicide ideation and who have acted on these thoughts.
Reach out today for a complimentary 15-minute consultation. We will connect you with a clinician from our team of trained and passionate registered psychotherapists and social workers so that you can discuss your needs and how we might be able to help.
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.
