Suicidal Thoughts

Melanie Mosbarger

Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, CTTS
Suicidal thoughts can be overwhelming and feel defeating. However, it is a myth that if you talk about it you are more likely to harm yourself. On the contrary when you talk about it you release this from inside of you and by verbalizing it you are normalizing these thoughts and can process through more rational ways of handling these deep emotions and thoughts. The various trainings I have completed and the individuals I have served with suicidal thoughts have debunked this myth time and again.

Suicidal Thoughts

Sierra Dayton

Licensed Professional Counselor, M.Ed., LPC
I have worked closely with multiple concerns that include suicidal thoughts and ideations. I have worked crisis cases where clients were continuously suicidal. I have also worked in a psychiatric hospital setting. I have also taken a 3-day suicide identification and prevention training workshop to improve my ability to detect when someone in suicidal and to know when to ask the "hard questions" about suicidal thoughts.

Suicidal Thoughts

PSYCHe, PLLC

Psychologist, PhD, 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.

Suicidal Thoughts

Rick Grant-Coons

Psychologist, Psy.D
There are many cases where those having thoughts of suicide have been turned away by therapists for being too “high risk” or they were hospitalized without their consent. Unfortunately, many mental health professionals do not possess adequate training in suicide prevention and therefore do not respond appropriately when working with someone with thoughts of suicide. Didi Hirsch Mental Health Services-Suicide Prevention Center in Los Angeles was the first 24-hour suicide crisis line in the world. As their Lead Clinical Supervisor, I helped to develop programs and run support groups for Suicide Attempt Survivors. I continue to travel the country leading trainings in suicide prevention preparing individuals and organizations on how to best work with those impacted by suicide.
