Suicidal Ideation Therapists in Miami-Dade County, Florida

Suicidal ideation is the clinical term for thinking of or imagining suicide, and it can take many forms. Sometimes, it might be a vague thought of wishing not to go on. Other times, it can be very specific, such as forming a clear plan for ending one's own life. Although there are varied warning signs of suicide, suicidal ideation is one of the clearest signs that a person may be in danger.

Safety is the most important and immediate concern, so it is of critical importance that help is sought from a mental health or medical professional, or by calling a helpline, such as The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline. This helpline is available 24/7 at 1-800-273-8255.

Working with a skilled therapist forms an important component of both short and longer-term care for individuals experiencing suicidal ideation.
