Abstract

The ways most counselors have dealt psychotherapeutically with insecure relationships and suicidal ideation appear to have mutated. The author describes the measures he and other professionals employ when confronted with the possibilities that clients will dissolve their relationships, or take their lives, and furnishes a rationale for such departures from preexisting practice. In the majority of instances, he is disposed to leave decisions to clients, and furnishes the reasons he does so, but includes in this paper the safeguards he employs to reduce the number of mistakes he might make.
