Suicidal Thoughts
Erik Stenglein
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LICSW
Specialties include suicidal ideation support, suicide risk assessment, safety planning, emotional regulation, crisis support, and trauma-informed care for adults.
I work with adults 18+ who experience suicidal thoughts, passive suicidality, or feelings of hopelessness and despair. Many clients come to therapy feeling scared by their thoughts, ashamed to talk about them, or unsure whether they can be honest without being judged. My approach is calm, collaborative, and trauma-informed, focused on creating safety, reducing distress, and helping clients feel understood rather than pathologized. Therapy is a space to openly discuss suicidal thoughts, strengthen coping and protective factors, and build a plan for navigating difficult moments while working toward stability, meaning, and connection.

Suicidal Thoughts
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.

Suicidal Thoughts
Bold Expressions Therapy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I believe that many people have had, at some point, suicidal thoughts due to societal pressures. Each person is different in their thoughts, beliefs, and desires. I do not believe in the desire to keep someone alive for the sake of life alone, but rather that it is my job to help someone cultivate a live a life worth living without judgement.

Suicidal Thoughts
Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Suicidal thoughts and self-injury impulses often come from parts of us trying to protect against unbearable pain, emotional overwhelm, or feelings of worthlessness. Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), I help clients gently explore and understand these reactive parts with compassion, reducing shame and building a sense of inner safety. Somatic regulation, mindfulness, and DBT-informed skills are integrated to strengthen self-regulation, improve coping, and decrease overwhelm. Together, we work on uncovering the deeper layers of distress and developing new ways to soothe and support yourself so that these protective impulses become less urgent and less consuming. My diagnostic expertise and collaboration with prescribers ensure comprehensive care when additional support is needed.
