What is it about?

Suicidality is one of the most anxiety-provoking scenarios in clinical practice. This article provides simple strategies for integrating BCBT+, an empirically supported intervention, into day-to-day clinical practice. BCBT+ includes only four hours of clinical intervention which can be integrated easily into ongoing psychotherapy.

Why is it important?

Available evidence, including multiple randomized clinical trials, indicates that BCBT+ is both an effective and efficient approach to the management of elevated suicidality in clinical practice.

Perspectives

As a clinician and clinical scientist, one of my central concerns has been to identify effective clinical interventions for elevated suicidality that can be integrated into clinical practice in a seamless and complementary fashion, but most importantly, in a manner that recognizes the unique nature of individual emotional suffering.
