Many therapists don’t know what they don’t know about #suicide risk assessment.

A thread.

1/20 Some MH prof’ls got upset w/me this week for saying in the NYT that some therapists don’t ask about suicidal ideation, even w/depressed clients.

The psychologist who started the pile-on said he asks abt thoughts of “harming yourself.”

That’s NOT asking suicidal thoughts.
