My experience includes adolescents, adults, and geriatrics who suffer from depression, anxiety, suicidal ideations, self-harm, developmental disorders, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, bipolar, psychosis, and PTSD.
Let’s embark on a journey together where I’ll empower, educate, and motivate you every step of the way. Together, we'll set meaningful goals and work towards them. As a bilingual therapist fluent in both English and Greek, my multicultural background enables me to approach our sessions with an open mind and deep empathy. In our therapeutic journey, we'll explore your conflicts, cultivate connections, share insight, and foster resilience, empowering you to thrive. I prioritize listening when you need to be heard and exploring solutions when you need to address challenges. Lastly, having someone safe to talk to can make a difference.

Just because no one else can heal or do your inner work for you, doesn't mean you can, should, or need to do it alone. Sometimes the people around you won't understand your journey. They don't need to, it's not for them.

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.
