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.

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.

Suicidal Thoughts
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."

Suicidal Thoughts
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.

Nashville's identity as the hub of the country music and entertainment industries creates distinct demand for therapists who understand performance anxiety, creative identity, and the psychological pressures of a career where public persona and private self are often difficult to separate. The city's explosive growth — driven by healthcare, technology, and tourism — has brought a large influx of transplants navigating social isolation and the challenge of building community in a fast-changing city. Vanderbilt University Medical Center and HCA Healthcare, one of the largest hospital systems in the country, provide major institutional mental health resources alongside a growing network of private practices. Nashville's strong faith community means many residents seek therapists who can integrate spiritual values with evidence-based treatment for anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns.
