Dr. Stephanie Vaughn
Psychologist, Psy.D., DBT-LBC™
Most people have thought about suicide, but chronic suicidal thinking is something that needs to be addressed. Many therapists actually avoid working with people who are suicidal out of fear of liability. But someone needs to do it and our practice is committed to doing so. Learning to build a life worth living is a premise in DBT that helps when you're trying to let go of "suicide as a solution."

Becca Edwards
Therapist, LMSW, Ed.S., M.ed
Experiencing thoughts of suicide can feel frightening, isolating, and overwhelming. I provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to talk honestly about what you’re experiencing and work collaboratively toward safety, connection, and support. When needed, I incorporate safety planning and coordination with additional supports to help you through periods of crisis.

Dr. Joe Rustum
Psychologist, PsyD, License Psychologist
I help clients who are experiencing suicidal thoughts, hopelessness, emotional overwhelm, or the feeling that they cannot keep going the way things are. Therapy provides a safe and direct space to talk honestly about these thoughts without judgment. Together, we focus on reducing immediate distress, strengthening coping strategies, increasing support, and addressing the patterns that contribute to feeling trapped or hopeless. My goal is to help clients find safety, stability, and a path forward.

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.

Nat Nigro
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, M.Ed., LPC-MHSP
As a nonbinary AuDHD therapist, I am familiar with the ways suicidal ideation often shows up in the queer and neurodivergent communities. I think we all deserve a safe place to heal and be ourselves, and I would be honored to create one of those spaces for you.
