Psychologist, Registered Psychologist, BSc, MA
Suicidal thoughts are a symptom of an underlying problem. Treatment is effective in many cases, but the first step is to ask for help. A person might have persistent thoughts of suicide and never suicide, but a person might also suicide after only briefly experiencing suicidal ideation. All suicidal ideation and behavior should be taken seriously, Let us help you.

Movement with Steph
Registered Psychotherapist, MCouns&PsychTh
More people than you thin experience suicidal thoughts. Sometimes they can be passive and fleeting other times they can be quite persistent and detailed. If you experience any suicidal thoughts it is a sign that there is some part of you (big or small) that needs attention. I work with clients to hold space for all of their emotions, including the pain, suffering, hurt, and unbearably tough emotions and experiences that can often lead us to have suicidal thoughts. I not only aim to help clients find strategies to manage and regulate these emotions and experiences, but I also aim to help them understand themselves and their needs better in order to help them find what they are truly seeking.

Clair Ramsden
Counsellor/Therapist, (Dip.Couns)
As a counsellor working with a suicidal client, I will ask the client if they have any thoughts of self-harm or suicide. I will also ask how serious they are about it and whether or not they would carry out this behaviour.
If they have any thoughts of suicide or self-harm, I will ask them to give me their thoughts on how they would commit this behaviour. As a counsellor, I would use a scale to measure how often these thoughts occur. After collecting these details, I can then determine if I can help my client or refer them to a crisis support team.

Valerie Fearon
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CBT, Mindfulness, Counselling, Inner Child Truma
AS Counsellor working with Suicidal Thoughts.
Firstly ask the client "Are you having any thoughts of suicide or self-harm. If yes how long have you had these thoughts when they happen?.
Ask how serious do you feel about carrying out these thoughts. Or if you left here right now how what us the likelihood that you would follow through with your thoughts about killing your self.
For plan. I would ask. Have you given though to how you would kill/harm yourself.
As a Counsellor I would use 0-10 scale to measure how often do they have these thoughts. After I have asked these questions I would have a much better understanding of my clients current level of suicidality. Then I will be able to know if I can work with my client or refer them to their GP or someone else more experience in Suicidal cases.
