Every day, counsellors and support professionals work with people who may be silently struggling with thoughts of suicide. While recognising red flags is vital, it’s what happens next that can make the most difference. Research shows that over half of those who die by suicide have sought help from a health professional in the month before their death — making our response in those moments critically important. This one-hour webinar provides evidence-informed guidance for professionals who may find themselves supporting clients at risk of suicide. It offers clear, practical strategies you can apply in real-world situations — whether you’re in a counselling session, a phone check-in, or an unexpected moment of crisis. Ideal for counsellors, case workers, support staff, and anyone working in a helping profession, this session will help you feel more prepared to respond when it matters most. A downloadable resource toolkit will also be provided to support implementation beyond the session.
