Cathy Kunzel
Counsellor/Therapist, Graduate Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy
I have completed Applied Suicide Intervention Training and Gateway. Sometimes life is so hard, the pain is unbearable that the thought of leaving it all behind seems like the best option. There is a light at the end of the tunnel and when you are at your darkest point you are halfway
through.

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.

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.

Clair Ramsden
Counsellor/Therapist, (Dip.Couns)
As a counsellor working with a suicidal client, I will ask the client if they have any thoughts of self-harm or suicide. I will also ask how serious they are about it and whether or not they would carry out this behaviour.
If they have any thoughts of suicide or self-harm, I will ask them to give me their thoughts on how they would commit this behaviour. As a counsellor, I would use a scale to measure how often these thoughts occur. After collecting these details, I can then determine if I can help my client or refer them to a crisis support team.
