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.

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.
