Many of the people I work with are used to holding a lot on their own. They may appear high-functioning on the outside while internally struggling with anxiety, ADHD, autism, burnout, emotional overwhelm, relationship stress, self-criticism, or feeling disconnected from themselves. I especially enjoy supporting queer, trans, nonbinary, and neurodivergent people navigating identity exploration, masking, people-pleasing, complex trauma, or difficulty feeling emotionally safe in relationships.

I work with children, teens and adults with specialization in ADHD, autism, intellectual disabilities and suicidal ideation.
Sometimes reaching out for support can feel uncomfortable—like maybe you should be able to handle things on your own, or like asking for help means something is wrong with you. Those thoughts can be heavy and isolating, especially when you’re already doing your best just to get through the day. If you’ve ever felt unsure about where to begin or whether you’ll be understood, you’re not alone. I offer a calm, welcoming space where you don’t have to edit yourself or have all the answers. I move at whatever pace that aligns with you, as this is a space where your story matters, and where you get to show up just as you are.

Suicidal Ideation Counsellors
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 behavioural 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 behavioural, dialectical behaviour, psychodynamic, acceptance and commitment therapies, among others. Cognitive behavioural and dialectical behaviour 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.
