Course overview

America is in the midst of a suicide crisis. Earlier this year, the Center for Disease Control released statistics showing that the rate of suicide increased by 33% between 1999 and 2017. Since 2008, suicide is the 10th leading cause of death for all ages. That rate only increases when there is a history of childhood abuse and neglect. However, as therapists most of us received little, if any training, about how to manage a suicidal crisis. Most of the training that is available focuses on 'fixing' the problem of suicide through prediction and prevention techniques. In this presentation we will ask our participants to re-consider current understanding of suicidal behaviors as the problem, and demonstrate through case examples, how suicidality holds meaning for our clients, that requires exploration. We will present techniques to help clinicians work through the many emotional, practical, and ethical problems that can arise from an acute or chronic suicidal crisis. We hope that clinicians will leave with a new language and tools for a new kind of conversation about suicide, one that leaves both survivor and therapist with a sense of hope, in what has traditionally been a hopelessness inducing experience. This course is based on the recorded webinar, Suicidality: Changing the Narrative created by Cornelia Tietke, MSW, Simone Jacobs, LCSW-C, and Joanne Zucchetto, MSW in 2020.
