Suicidal Thoughts
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.

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.

Suicidal Thoughts
John Jakubowski
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, APCC
It's actually normal for people to be inquisitive about life and death - it's the great mystery. If you're going beyond this into planning, and fantasizing about how to kill yourself, pick up the phone now and call 911. Your life is precious, and there are so many connections that perhaps you have lost sight of. The pain will go away and it will change, but it starts by reaching out.

Marianne Albina
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT # 139542
I assist clients in exploring the voice, intention, operations, and effects of their thoughts. This process helps clients perceive these thoughts as external to themselves, empowering us to find ways to challenge and weaken their grip.
