Suicidal
Claire de la Varre
Therapist, PhD, HGDipP
Suicidal thoughts can arise during periods of intense emotional pain, overwhelm, disconnection, or depression. They are a signal that something important needs care and attention. Experiencing these thoughts does not mean you truly want to die, but rather that you want relief from suffering. It is hard to talk to other people about such feelings, but as a psychotherapist I am trained to listen to whatever you have to say and can help you address your emotional needs more appropriately, as well as providing healthy coping strategies. Please reach out if you are struggling.

I provide a safe space for clients to explore their feelings of suicidality, with the aim of reducing the risk of suicide attempts. I will never judge a client for having these thoughts or urges. My priority is the safety of my clients, and I work with them to figure out what will keep them safe.

Suicidal
Samantha Coleman
Therapist, MBACP Prof Dip
Suicidal thoughts can feel frightening, isolating, and overwhelming, and they are often linked to deep pain, hopelessness, exhaustion, or a sense that things cannot change. I offer a compassionate, calm, and non-judgemental space where these thoughts can be spoken about openly and taken seriously. My approach focuses on understanding what is happening beneath the surface and helping you feel less alone with what you are carrying.

Edinburgh's identity as Scotland's capital and a major university city — home to the University of Edinburgh, one of the world's leading research institutions — creates strong demand for therapists experienced with academic pressure, young adult transitions, and the challenges of a highly competitive intellectual environment. The city's large student population, tourism sector workforce, and growing tech community each generate distinct therapy needs, from performance anxiety and identity exploration to burnout and occupational stress. NHS Lothian provides public mental health services, with a private therapy community concentrated in Stockbridge, Morningside, and the New Town. Edinburgh's annual Festival season brings an influx of creative professionals and associated mental health demands around performance, identity, and the pressures of public artistic life.
