Suicide Assessment

Title:
Suicide Assessment
Authors:
John Sommers-Flannagan, PhD and Rita Sommers-Flannagan, PhD
Description:
Because suicide is a painful and provocative topic, advanced assessment skills are essential (Sommers-Flanagan & Sommers-Flanagan, 2021). For many reasons, as Sommers-Flanagan and Sommers-Flanagan explained, professionals sometimes engage poorly with clients who are suicidal. This Continuing Professional Development presents the 11 components of a comprehensive suicide assessment process. More specifically, counselors will learn to: (1) know and monitor for the individualized presence or absence of suicide risk factors, protective factors, and warning signs while developing a therapeutic relationship, (2) apply therapeutic assessment to explore suicidal ideation, strengths, suicide plans, and previous attempts, and (3) understand how to engage in collaborative problem-solving and safety planning for assessment, treatment, and decision-making purposes.

Learning Objectives:

  • Know and monitor for the individualized presence or absence of suicide risk factors, protective factors, and warning signs while developing a therapeutic relationship.
  • Apply therapeutic assessment to explore suicidal ideation, strengths, suicide plans, and previous attempts.
  • Understand how to engage in collaborative problem-solving and safety planning for assessment, treatment, and decision-making purposes.
