Suicidal
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.

Suicidal
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.

Danielle Farabaugh
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I provide compassionate, nonjudgmental support for individuals experiencing suicidal thoughts. These thoughts are more common than many realize and often signal deep emotional pain rather than a true wish to die. Together, we work to understand the underlying causes, build coping strategies, and create a sense of safety and hope. Through evidence-based therapy, I help clients reduce distress, strengthen resilience, and reconnect with meaning, support, and reasons to live.

Suicidal
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.

Ashlyn Parks
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC., MT-BC.
Struggling with any form of suicidal thoughts can be incredibly isolating. These thoughts are not your fault, and you deserve to feel supported in exploring them. Having thoughts of self-harm does not negate the rest of who you are.

Philadelphia's identity as a historically working-class city with deep neighborhood roots shapes its therapy culture, with demand for therapists who understand economic stress, community violence, and the psychological weight of living in a city marked by stark racial and economic disparities. The city is home to world-class institutions including the University of Pennsylvania Health System, Jefferson Health, and Temple University Hospital, with a strong academic psychiatry and psychology community feeding into its private practice ecosystem. Philadelphia's large Black and Latino populations drive demand for culturally affirming therapists, and the city has a growing network of therapists of color across its diverse neighborhoods. Many practices are accessible via SEPTA, making therapy more reachable for clients across the city without cars.
