Jennifer Canu
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Suicidal thoughts, as most mental health symptoms, are on a spectrum ranging from fleeting thoughts/statements of wanting to die (suicide expression) to active suicidal thoughts with a plan and intent. I have over 15 years experience treating suicidal thoughts of varying intensity and risk. With my client's consent, I partner with external supports such as psychiatrists, family members, schools and physicians in safety planning, treatment planning and after-care planning following a 5150/5585 hold or hospitalization. When a child or teen experiences suicidal thoughts, I engage parents/caregivers in safety planning and developing strategies to address underlying triggers and dynamics that may contribute to suicidal thoughts.

Miriam Adrianowicz
Psychologist, PsyD
When depression takes over, it's common to feel that life isn't worth living. Whether these thoughts are passive or active, we'll work together to first ensure your safety. I believe the more we vocalize our suicidal thoughts, the more it diffuses them. Or rather, talking about suicidal thoughts does not make you more likely to act on them; it, instead, creates an outlet for these sometimes scary ideas, actually decreasing the felt need for action. Suicidal thoughts are so stigmatized, but at some point in our lives, I believe everyone thinks about suicide in some way -- whether it's intellectually/existentially or from a place of pain and depression. Taking away that stigma and talking non-judgmentally about what you're thinking can help you make sense of these sometimes disturbing thoughts. We can figure out what role they play in your psyche, how to relieve some of the pain they cause, and make sure safety is priority #1.
