I write extensively about suicide assessment and intervention. I'm the author of Helping the Suicidal Person: Tips and Techniques for Professionals (Routledge, 2018) and Loving Someone with Suicidal Thoughts: What Family, Friends, and Partners Can Say and Do (New Harbinger, 2023). I also have a couple other books in progress. My website, SpeakingOfSuicide.com, has received more than 7 million views. I’m also a licensed clinical social worker in private practice and an associate professor at the University of Denver Graduate School of Social Work.
