Integrated Suicide & Trauma Therapy for Suicide Risk

RecruitingNA

Sponsor: Unity Health Toronto

Conditions: Suicide, Trauma, Major Depressive Disorder

The investigators have developed a novel suicide intervention, Integrated Suicide and Trauma Therapy (ISTT). ISTT combines Brief-Skills for Safer Living (Brief-SfSL)-a promising method to enhance coping skills and reduce suicidality-with a trauma therapy component to alleviate the specific impacts of childhood trauma on suicide risk. The aim of this pilot is to test 12-weeks of ISTT to alleviate suicide risk among individuals with a history of childhood trauma and current suicidality.
