Using EMDR therapy with suicidal children and adolescents

Child and adolescent therapists try to navigate the complexities of our child and adolescent clients’ lives and try to prevent such tragedies. Suicide is the second cause of death for young people between the ages of 10 and 24 years old. And, while death by suicide in younger children is rare, it has increased significantly in the last few years and has increased for adolescents as well. Much has been written about teen suicide, but little is known about younger children and suicide (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 2018), and even less has been written about using EMDR with suicidal children and teenagers.
