This training session will discuss insights from the field of suicidology to deepen participants’ theoretical understanding of suicide. These theoretical insights are intended to increase empathy for those suffering with suicidal thoughts and feelings, while also informing clinical interventions to prevent suicide deaths. The trainer will review core components of suicide risk assessment and crisis intervention, including safety-planning and hospitalization, from a trauma-informed perspective.
