Michael Elwan
Registered Social Worker, PhD Candidate (Mental Health), MSW, GradCertMH, DipPsych, MBA
Suicidal thoughts often signal exhaustion, hopelessness, or being trapped in a situation that feels unbearable to keep enduring. I work carefully and collaboratively with people experiencing suicidal ideation, prioritising safety, dignity, and honesty about what we can and cannot do together in this work. The work is grounded in lived experience of suicide bereavement in my own family. LEXs is not a crisis service; if you are in immediate danger, please contact 000 or Lifeline on 13 11 14.

If suicidal thoughts are a continual battle, then it's time to seek support. The pain you feel can be overwhelming and all consuming.
You are not alone. You are not weak or flawed. You are experiencing a pain, (not always recognised) that you can't cope with. There is a solution for your problem, sometimes more than one.

13 Years Experience
Online in Perth, WA Western Australia
Perth is one of the most geographically isolated major cities in the world, and this remoteness contributes to distinct mental health challenges — including elevated rates of depression and difficulty accessing specialist care readily available elsewhere in Australia. The city's economy has historically been tied to mining, and therapists regularly work with the psychological effects of fly-in-fly-out work arrangements, including relationship strain, parental absence, and the boom-bust cycle's impact on employment stability and identity. Fiona Stanley Hospital and Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital provide institutional mental health resources alongside a substantial private practice community serving Subiaco, Fremantle, and the inner suburbs. Medicare Mental Health Treatment Plans provide partial subsidies for eligible residents, and telehealth plays an important role in extending care across Western Australia's enormous geography.
