Iris Bowen
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MBA
Many folks I work with experience suicidal thoughts, so if you are scared, sad, or tired of this experience you are not alone. As an abolitionist therapist, I aim to help you lean on social and communal supports when experiencing suicidal ideation, knowing that for many people--Black and Brown folks in particular—it can feel really scary to discuss these things with a provider for fear of being placed into a carceral setting for forced treatment. I believe in your dignity and right to receive care that is self-determined and consensual.

Shira Collings

Suicidal thoughts are a common response to being in intense psychological pain and distress. I provide support with safety planning and crisis prevention, as well as exploring and working through the stressors and issues in individuals' lives that are contributing to their suicidal ideation. My goal is to support clients not only in managing risk and keeping themselves safe but in building a life worth living.

HUGH R STEWART III
Hypnotherapist, Ph.D., ACHt.
Many of us have suicidal thoughts, even murderous thoughts. The important distinction to remember is that thought and acting on the thought are two completely different scenarios. I welcome clients that are challenged with said thoughts and am willing and delighted that we can have such meaningful conversations to get to the cause of and release such depressing and angry thoughts so that we can live a happy, productive, safe, and secure life of joy and sovereignty.
