Suicidal Ideation and Self-Harm exist within many psychiatric disorders and can be both dangerous and frightening for families and their affected loved ones. While there are several effective psychotherapy modalities, Monarch’s mentalization-based approach restores physical and emotional stability by creating a sense of interpersonal safety in the community. Expert staff help with co-regulating intense emotion, modeling curiosity about suicidal states of mind, and encouraging residents to identify meanings and patterns that precipitate suicidal states. Monarch utilizes the protocol “Core Principles in Treating Suicidal Patients,” which was written by its Executive Clinical Director, Dr. J. Christopher Fowler.” The modality is taught in medical schools, residency programs, clinical/counseling programs, and in advanced seminars for seasoned clinicians.
