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.

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."

Virginia Beach and the surrounding Hampton Roads metro area have one of the highest concentrations of active-duty military personnel and veterans in the country, anchored by Naval Station Norfolk — the world's largest naval base — creating sustained demand for therapists who specialize in military trauma, PTSD, and the dynamics of military family life. Therapists experienced with moral injury, deployment-related adjustment, and service-to-civilian transition are well represented, and many practices specifically orient their care toward service members and their families. Sentara Healthcare and Bon Secours provide institutional mental health resources for the region, complemented by a growing private practice community. Virginia Beach's coastal environment and strong community ties give the city a relatively stable baseline, though the psychological weight of military life remains a defining feature of the local therapy landscape.
