Suicidal Thoughts
Taylor Allie
Licensed Professional Counselor, LGPC
In addition to my person-centered approach to therapy, I am also intensively trained in comprehensive Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to assist clients who are managing self-harm and suicidal ideation. Self-harm and suicidal ideation are behaviors that seek to resolve something that we view as a problem, and I use my eclectic skillset as a way to help clients problem solve differently and reconnect to the world in a way that enhances their quality of life and honors the nuances of who they are.

Dr. Joe Rustum
Psychologist, PsyD, License Psychologist
I support high achievers and perfectionists struggling with suicidal thoughts by addressing the immense pressure they often place on themselves. Together, we explore how perfectionism and feelings of failure may contribute to their emotional pain and hopelessness. I provide a safe, non-judgmental space to talk about their feelings and work toward healing, while also teaching strategies to manage overwhelming emotions. By challenging negative beliefs about self-worth and success, I help clients build a more compassionate view of themselves. My goal is to guide them toward a path of hope, resilience, and healthier ways to cope with life's challenges.
