Suicidal Thoughts
Basten and Associates
Psychologist, Masters in Clinical Psychology, Ph.D.
The main reason that people find themselves experiencing suicidal ideas is because they are in bad emotional pain and they can't see things improving. We call this the pain-hopelessness theory. Many people find comfort from their own suicidal thoughts (for instance, they feel so terrible now that they like to tell themselves that they can end it one day if things don't get better). Others and shocked and scared by their thoughts. No matter what is going on for you, if you are having suicidal thoughts, then it is time to take action straight away. Call and we can start to help and made a difference. When you feel hopeless, there is always something that can be done - you just haven't found it yet and maybe you need someone else in the ring with you fighting in your corner to find the way through.

Suicidal Thoughts
Shareen Birges
Registered Social Worker, BASS, GDYMH, MSW
In my experience suicidal thoughts are the mind's way of letting us know that we are overwhelmed by our emotional, mental & psychological pain. Supporting people around this issue requires empathy, understanding & compassion. This is important because individuals need to feel able to be open & honest about suicidal ideation & thoughts. As a professional I have worked with countless people around this issue, which often goes hand in hand with depression and/or a trauma background. I feel I have the skill to build the necessary relationship to effect change & to help people who are vulnerable to harm to learn to protect themselves.

Suicidal Thoughts
Valerie Fearon
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CBT, Mindfulness, Counselling, Inner Child Truma
AS Counsellor working with Suicidal Thoughts.
Firstly ask the client "Are you having any thoughts of suicide or self-harm. If yes how long have you had these thoughts when they happen?.
Ask how serious do you feel about carrying out these thoughts. Or if you left here right now how what us the likelihood that you would follow through with your thoughts about killing your self.
For plan. I would ask. Have you given though to how you would kill/harm yourself.
As a Counsellor I would use 0-10 scale to measure how often do they have these thoughts. After I have asked these questions I would have a much better understanding of my clients current level of suicidality. Then I will be able to know if I can work with my client or refer them to their GP or someone else more experience in Suicidal cases.
