Working with clients at risk for suicide is one of the greatest fears many mental health professionals carry—and one of the most critical responsibilities in clinical practice. This live webinar offers a clear, grounded, and empowering path forward. Designed specifically for clinicians, counselors, and support professionals who feel anxious or uncertain when addressing suicide risk, this session provides practical, proven strategies that truly make a difference.

You’ll learn how to recognize warning signs with greater confidence, ask the right questions without hesitation, and apply evidence-based approaches that reduce immediate and long-term risk. The webinar also dispels common myths, clarifies what actually works in suicide prevention, and offers realistic, compassionate tools that fit seamlessly into everyday practice.

Whether you’re new to this work or experienced but still uneasy, this training will help you feel more prepared, more capable, and more grounded when supporting clients in crisis.

Gain skills that save lives—and confidence that empowers you.
