We approach suicidal thoughts with deep care, respect, and a strong focus on safety. Using an IFS lens, we understand these thoughts as signals of parts in extreme distress rather than a desire to die. Our work emphasizes stabilization, connection, and compassionate support while prioritizing safety planning.

Danielle Thurman (Roots and Wings Family Therapy)
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS) can be deeply supportive for individuals experiencing suicidal thoughts by addressing both the pain within relationships and the internal emotional landscape. EFT helps individuals feel seen, understood, and securely connected, which can reduce feelings of isolation, shame, and hopelessness that often accompany suicidal thinking. By creating corrective emotional experiences, EFT fosters a sense of belonging and emotional safety. At the same time, IFS helps individuals approach the parts of themselves that hold despair, numbness, or urges toward self-harm with curiosity and compassion rather than fear or avoidance. This process allows those parts to be understood and cared for, reducing their intensity and creating space for hope and self-leadership to emerge. Together, EFT and IFS help individuals feel less alone both internally and externally, strengthening their capacity to cope and move toward life rather than away from it.

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, AAMFT Approved Supervisor
When we have thoughts of wanting to die, that it would all be better if we were dead, we really just need something to change, something to stop, something to feel different. Suicidal thoughts keep us focused on a solution, but not the best solution. There are other ways to get the pain, exhaustion, and fatigue to stop. Let's find those together and stick around to experience the change!

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.
