Part two of Dan's conversation with Dr. Craig Bryan, a board-certified clinical psychologist in cognitive behavioural psychology. He is the Stress, Trauma, and Resilience (STAR) Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Health at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center.Summary

Dan and Dr. Bryan discuss a transformative approach to suicide prevention, emphasizing the importance of reframing the concept from merely keeping individuals alive to helping them find a life worth living. Dr. Bryan advocates for a collaborative risk assessment model that prioritizes patient needs and experiences over traditional checklist methods. Dr. Bryan also critiques the effectiveness of hospitalization in preventing suicide, suggesting that it may not address the underlying issues and can sometimes exacerbate the situation.
