“There’s no point in living anymore...” “Everyone would be better off if I weren’t around...” “The pain is just too much, I can’t handle it...”

These are some of the thoughts repeating in the minds of many people you see in your practice.

These desperate thoughts go round and round for so long the client starts to believe them.

Add the sense of isolation that comes from NOT talking about it, and it becomes nearly impossible to escape that emotional turmoil.

Hospitalization isn’t usually the answer for clients struggling with suicidality. And new research shows trained outpatient clinicians with a reliable set of skills and interventions can manage suicidality in their practices.

Because expert training in managing suicidal thoughts and behaviors can be hard to find...

We've brought together many of the leading trainers in the field for this suicide prevention online training course.

Join world-renowned expert clinicians and researchers like Thomas Joiner, director of the renowned Joiner Research Lab; Kate Chard, co-developer of Cognitive Processing Therapy; Kelly Posner, director of the Columbia Lighthouse Project & developer of the Columbia Protocol; and experts on DBT, Internal Family Systems, Veterans, Youth and Teens.

Thomas Joiner
Why People Die by Suicide: What the Last 20 Years of Research Shows Us
Thomas Joiner, PhD | Click here for information about Thomas Joiner

In his theory of suicidal behavior, Thomas Joiner proposes three factors that mark those most at risk of death: the feeling of being a burden on loved ones, the sense of isolation, and, perhaps chillingly, the partly genetic and partly learned ability to hurt oneself. He tests the theory against diverse facts, with implications for the full spectrum of clinical activities related to suicidality.
