Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist addressing suicidal thinking, my foremost priority is creating a safe and empathetic space for individuals to express their emotions without judgment. Through evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and interpersonal therapy, I work collaboratively with clients to explore the underlying causes of their suicidal thoughts and develop coping strategies to manage them. By fostering a sense of hope, resilience, and connection, I aim to help individuals develop a safety plan, enhance their support networks, and build skills to navigate crises effectively. Additionally, I emphasize the importance of ongoing monitoring and communication to ensure individuals feel heard, understood, and supported throughout their recovery journey. My goal is to empower individuals to find meaning, purpose, and hope in life, while providing compassionate support and guidance every step of the way.

Sushma Cheturvedula
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
I would offer comprehensive support to individuals contending with suicidal thoughts. Initially, I'd establish a safe and non-judgmental environment for them to express their feelings openly. Subsequently, we would delve into the underlying emotional disturbances, traumatic triggers, or relational challenges fueling their suicidal ideations. Through therapy, we'll address distorted thought patterns and bolster coping skills. Moreover, I'd collaborate with them to devise a safety plan for managing crises effectively and connect them with suitable resources, such as crisis hotlines or support groups. The primary objective is to provide compassionate assistance, foster hope, and empower them to overcome suicidal thoughts while addressing core emotional and relational issues.
