Suicidal
Cyndi Turner
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LSATP, MAC
If you’re experiencing suicidal thoughts, it’s crucial to seek immediate support. You can call 988. However, there is a difference between having a thought about suicide versus a plan of action. Many people suffer in silence, feeling alone and hopeless. Insight can help. Therapy provides a safe space to explore these feelings and develop a comprehensive safety plan. We focus on addressing underlying issues, building coping strategies, and connecting you with resources to ensure your safety and support your path to recovery. We may try individual and family therapy and have an in-house psychiatrist if medication can be helpful.

Reiss Psychology Services, PLLC
Psychologist, PsyD
I work with teens experiencing suicidal ideation using Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. DBT offers structured skills in distress tolerance that help teens move through acute emotional pain without acting on it. I work collaboratively with each teen to build a personalized safety plan, identifying warning signs, coping strategies, and support contacts they can turn to before a crisis escalates. CBT complements this by helping teens identify and challenge the distorted thoughts that often underlie suicidal thinking, such as hopelessness or feeling like a burden, and replacing them with more balanced perspectives grounded in evidence. Throughout this work, I maintain close communication with parents and, when appropriate, coordinate with other providers to ensure the teen has a strong support system beyond our sessions.

Lindsey Luedtke
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Suicidal ideations and self harm are very important parts of a person's system that are present to help extinguish deep pain and hurt. Once we are able to help the parts of you that are in pain or hurting with compassion, the symptoms of suicidal ideations and self harm will decrease as they will no longer need to help you escape the pain you are in.

Suicidal
Dr. Michael M. Grant
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist PhD, MBA
Many of us feel pain and when we think that pain is insurmountable and permanent and there is no other way out, we sometimes think of ending our life as the solution. I do not go crazy when someone tells me that are having suicidal thoughts. I simply accept them and start digging into what the underlying pain is about and how I can help the person lesson that agony.
