In this episode, Heather and Kerissa chat with Tricia Wagner, LCPC and director of Outpatient Services at Shodair Children's Hospital.
We have an open conversation about understanding suicidal thoughts vs. suicidal ideation. Ways to support a child experiencing suicidal ideation. We talk about how to have a conversation with your child about what they are feeling. We also discuss the importance of having a safety plan and steps to take to create one.
*This episode could be challenging to hear as we dig deep into the subject of suicide. We hope to bring this subject out into the light and to better equip parents in supporting their children.
One resource we discuss is https://zerosuicidetraining.edc.org/

Remember if you are ever unsure of someone's safety call emergency services or take them to the ER.

This on occasion includes sensitive and difficult topics. (Topics include but not limited to; mental health crisis, depression, anxiety, burnout, trauma and suicidal ideation.)
