Content Warning: Suicide.
Have you ever had thoughts about not wanting to be alive? Would you ever tell your therapist? In today’s episode, Mona discusses her experience Crisis Planning for suicide prevention with a therapist based on a time in her own life when she was struggling to cope. Crisis Planning is a common framework many therapists use when a client discloses they are experiencing suicidal ideation. After 18 months of a pandemic, suicidality is on the rise, so we hope to illuminate what help and hope can actually look like. Find out what to expect if you disclose suicidal thoughts to a therapist, how a Safety Plan works, and the power of normalizing and talking about suicide.
