Paul Brasler – Suicide Assessment and Intervention – Today’s Top Challenges for Mental Health Professionals
What would you do?
“I woke up this morning and decided I didn’t have anything to live for. I told my dad that he would find me dead when he came home,” said Michelle, a 13-year-old girl sitting in a hospital bed. Her father reacted to his daughter’s declaration by bringing her to the hospital. I was asked to assess Michelle.
After some introductions and an explanation as to why I was there, Michelle agreed to speak with me by herself.
“So, was today the first time you’d had thoughts of killing yourself?” I asked.

“Have you thought about how you might try to kill yourself?”
“Not really; I figured I’d look around the house to see what I could use,” she stated.
