Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA. LPC
My approach to working with individuals experiencing suicidality is compassionate and client-centered. Creating a safe and non-judgmental space for clients to share their pain is essential in helping them navigate through difficult emotions and challenges. My commitment to understanding and supporting my clients, while also promoting positive coping skills, demonstrates our dedication to your well-being.
Focusing on individual strengths and existing positives is an empowering way to address negative patterns and obstacles, ultimately guiding clients towards a more purposeful life. My emphasis on building a strong, supportive, and professional relationship underscores the importance of collaboration in achieving positive outcomes.
I provide vital support to individuals facing challenges, and ensure clients will benefit greatly from my compassionate approach and dedication to their growth and well-being.

Suicidal Thoughts
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.

Suicidal Thoughts
Psychologist, Temporary Limited Licensed Psychologist
Suicidal thoughts effect everyone at some point in life to different degrees. Everyone has had that moment where they question their existence. Suicidal thoughts need to be looked at individually and processed out loud and in the mind. The individual needs to be able to develop coping skills that help elevate the specific thoughts or stressors.
