Life can be dysfunctional and although many of us learn how to function in this dysfunction there are times where it may become too much to walk in alone. Your life seems filled with constant thoughts of "I should have: said that differently, told them how I felt, spoke up for myself". You struggle with fears of judgment and expectations. Somedays it may seem like an impossible mission to get out of bed, shower, feed yourself or socialize with others. You struggle with persistent irrational thoughts that you are aware of but can't seem to make them stop.

My goal is to create an environment that is safe to heal. One that each person can speak freely without fear of judgement or ridicule.I confront the core issues with warmth so that we can tackle each problem one-by-one. I can work with individuals, children, adolescents, couples or families. I am referred to as a "family therapist" because I work with one person or many at the same time. Sessions are tailored to the client needs and goals. Talk therapy is not for everyone and if someone has difficulty expressing themselves we can use other modalities.

The relationships we form with intimate partners and ourselves are vulnerable and very often confusing and scary. My goal is to help you create secure attachments, explore and manage anxiety and fears, increase self-esteem, and improve connection within yourself and loved ones. Many that I work with have experienced sexual, childhood, or relationship trauma that can cause anxiety, undesired attachments, difficulty to regulate emotions, and connections that do not feel fulfilling. You may feel lost and vulnerable within your relationship with yourself and your partner. You deserve a safe space to express and explore these dynamics.

Night after night, you lie awake, feeling the weight of trauma, anxiety, and depression. The vibrant energy you once had has faded, replaced by silence, withdrawal, and constant worry. Each day feels like an endless blur, filled with dread and helplessness. You long for the times when your smiles were genuine, laughter came easily, and you felt safe and confident. You seek relief from this pain. You want to feel like yourself again, reclaim joy and peace, and manage your anxiety. Your goal is to wake up with hope, face each day with resilience, and live a life where you feel truly alive and connected.

Church hurt? Family Dysfunction? Relational Tears? I get it, sense of belonging, acceptance, and love are basic human needs and when we have these experiences they may cut to the core of our being and cause us to question many things. We may feel confused, angry, sad, afraid, irritable or experience doubt and isolation.

Suicidal Ideation Therapists
How does therapy for suicidal ideation work?
Stress, depression, anxiety, or upsetting circumstances can give rise to suicidal thinking. Therapy can address the events at the core of an individual’s suffering. Understanding why a person may be suicidal can help the therapist and the patient discover alternative methods of coping. A person with suicidal ideation may be mired in catastrophic thinking, and treatment like cognitive behavioral therapy is a good choice for breaking such patterns. In addition, treatment such as acceptance and commitment therapy can help a person manage their distress through better emotion regulation.
Which therapies are best for suicidal ideation?
Specific approaches used by professionals include cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavior, psychodynamic, acceptance and commitment therapies, among others. Cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior therapies are two widely used therapies that can help individuals with painful thoughts and past traumas. These therapies help an individual tolerate distress, regulate emotions, and not act on dangerous urges.
Are there specific medications to be combined with therapy?
The use of medication for suicidal thoughts must be aligned with the underlying cause; conditions such as depression, anxiety, and psychosis may be at the root of suicidal ideation. A psychiatrist may prescribe medications for symptoms, which may include antipsychotics such as aripiprazole or antidepressants such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors.
How often and how long are therapy sessions for suicidal ideation?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual. Patients may see improvement within 15 to 20 sessions, at an average of 50 minutes per session, while others may opt for 20 to 30 sessions over, perhaps, a six-month period. Still other patients, especially those with co-occurring conditions like major depression and anxiety, may need to continue sessions for up to 12 to 18 months. In some cases, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm.
