the Suicide Intervention Service...

We are here to help. If you are feeling vulnerable, please visit your GP and ask to be referred to us at Friends For Lives and receive a 50% discount on our online appointment price...
We practise an exclusive approach to suicide intervention that helps people explore new ways of thinking and being. Subject to referral our service will provide free support for individuals in emotional pain who are having thoughts of suicide.
This is an informal alternative to mainstream therapy services where clients receive unique personalised psychoeducational therapy on a ‘one to one’ basis.
Our role is to help those in need consider alternative ways of dealing with their current levels of distress and help them move from a place of helplessness, fear and immediate danger, to a place of safety, hope, recovery and long term resilience.
Our psycho-educational session programme includes an initial assessment, safety planning and ongoing monitoring services and supports via our free downloadable app that keeps individuals safe whilst they explore additional longer term supports.

How we work...
At Friends For Lives we specialise in suicide intervention...
We are a team of suicide informed 'Self Awareness Coaches' who use psycho-educational therapeutic techniques to guide you to discovering more about the mental and emotional processes you are currently experiencing and help you to learn new coping strategies to support safety and healing.
Our team is reinforced by highly trained Suicide Prevention Specialists and we have created a unique programme of personal guidance and additional supports that have been made available free to anyone experiencing thoughts of suicide through our FFL App.
Giving someone the opportunity to simply communicate their feelings is often all that is needed to take them from a place of isolation and danger to a place of support and safety". We offer safe, welcoming, non-judgemental and completely confidential support outside of typical public health and social care services. The people we support are invited to share their thoughts and feelings with highly trained people who truly care and who are comfortable communicating about everything, including suicide. Our clients feel safe to talk about every aspect of their life and their feelings without the worry of over-intervention.
Our innovative training programme provides all of the above and more... A learning experience with Friends For Lives can be truly life changing. 'We are here to help'...
