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.

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.

PSYCHe, PLLC
Psychologist, PhD, DBT-LBC™, LPC, PsyD, MSW, Marriage and Family Counselor, LCSW
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) was one of the first therapies to treat highly suicidal individuals on an outpatient basis. Because DBT considers suicide as the solution, not the actual problem itself, DBT therapists are focused on identifying the actual problems in order to assist with different, tangible solutions. Not only that, but DBT therapists are able to speak frankly about death instead of tiptoeing around it, treating patients with respect rather than patronizing with whispery tones and “concerned” looks. Within DBT, no person is treated as “fragile” and though the situation may be serious, we don’t take ourselves too seriously.

Dr. Michael M. Grant
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist PhD, MBA
Many of us feel pain and when we think that pain is insurmountable and permanent and there is no other way out, we sometimes think of ending our life as the solution. I do not go crazy when someone tells me that are having suicidal thoughts. I simply accept them and start digging into what the underlying pain is about and how I can help the person lesson that agony.
