Suicidal Thoughts

Claire Karakey

Therapist, LPC, MC
Suicidal Ideations (or suicidal thoughts) refers to thinking about or planning suicide – the act of ending one’s own life. It is not uncommon for people to experience suicidal thoughts when they are faced with times of extreme stress, serious injury or illness, or mental struggles such as Depression. When a person feels trapped, hopeless, or is having immense emotional or physical pain, thoughts of ending life as a way out can occur. There are biological, psychological, social, and environmental factors that can increase the risk of suicide – these factors coupled with adverse life events and a belief there is no other way out can lead to suicidal ideations. Passive Suicidal Ideation is when a person sometimes wishes they were dead but do not have any actual plans to commit suicide. However, when the thoughts turn to actual intent to kill oneself and include plans as to how to carry it out, that is called Active Suicidal Ideation. Therapy can be very helpful for an individual with suicidal thoughts. Hopeless feelings can be improved when viewed from different perspectives and a therapist can offer those insights. Support from friends, family, and groups can be helpful for continued connection and encouragement both during and after therapy.

Nashville, Tennessee therapist: PSYCHe, PLLC, psychologist
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.

Nashville, Tennessee therapist: Dr. Stephanie Vaughn, psychologist
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."
