Ep. 114 - When a therapist loses a client to suicide | Khara Croswaite

Understand Suicide

My guest today is the therapist Khara Croswaite and the topic is "When therapists lose a client to suicide." What does the grief look like? Who do we go to? What helps? What about the shame of sharing with colleagues that you have lost a client in this manner?

Khara knows some of those answers because she recently lost a client to suicide and she has been vulnerable and brave enough to share her story and publish a book about her experience. The book is entitled “Moving from Alert to Acceptance.” (link below).

This interview is the second of a week-long series, during which I will be publishing at least one episode every day directly from the 57th conference of the American Association of Suicidology, AAS, in Las Vegas.

Join me daily for interviews with key speakers, researchers, and loss survivors.
