Signs of suicidality can include talking about suicide, withdrawing from social interactions, mood swings, obsessing over death and dying, feeling trapped as though there is no way out, or a deep sense of hopelessness.

In an Emergency
In an emergency, or if you have attempted suicide and are injured, please call 911 for immediate help. After any injuries are treated, you will receive proper follow-up care.

Treatment and Ongoing Care
Effective treatment and care for those experiencing suicidal thoughts depend on the individual’s level of risk, personal needs, and preferences. Treatment options include psychotherapy, medication, group therapies, and family support and education. We conduct a thorough examination to understand your physical and mental health so we can determine the best plan for you. Because suicidal thoughts often accompany conditions such as depression and anxiety, our integrated approach addresses these underlying concerns as well, with careful medication management when appropriate.
While you will not wake up the next day feeling as though everything is resolved, you will notice your symptoms easing throughout treatment, and many people experience increased calm and relaxation. Recovery takes time, and you should not be discouraged if results are not immediate. Our Tamarac, FL team is here to support you. Call (754) 294-4357 or request an appointment online.
