Suicidal
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.

Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns) Dist, Dip. Couns, Trauma Informed Yoga Cert, Pranayama Cert, Nidra Cert
I work primarily from a Rogerian or Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) approach using a conversational style listening patiently to you, always with empathy, genuineness and without judgement, to help find the solutions you desire for your life whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
Due to my background in mental health work, I have a good understanding of clients experiencing suicide/self harm thoughts and how they impact the person including the distress this can bring. I am able to utilise a psycho-educational approach to help you understand your emotional distress issues better and learn practical strategies to reduce risk of acting on these thoughts and support to increase emotional regulation skills. I can also use specific somatic (mind/body) therapy techniques within the therapy session to support greater healing of the underlying often subconscious issues without the need to discuss the details of those issues to find resolution. These gentle but effective techniques create a new positive sense of self, leaving often the carried sense of shame created from the experience of suicide or self-harm thinking behind.
My aim is to assist you with your emotional distress creating the suicide or self-harming thoughts to restore balance, happiness and inner peace (using the various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods) along with offering practical strategies that may be useful where suitable and desired by you. Whatever you are going through, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.

Marc Donegan, Psychotherapist
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychodynamic Analysis & Transactional Analysis, PACFA, BACP, ITTA, EATA, UKATA
Talking openly about suicidal thoughts takes courage, and clients deserve a therapist who can hold that conversation without flinching or minimising it. I create a space where these thoughts can be named honestly, understood in context, and worked with safely, alongside appropriate risk management and support.
