In this episode, we unpack Dr. Geralyn Dexter's article Clinicians' Experiences of Negative Emotional Responses to Suicidality: How They Shape Assessment and Intervention and Influence Therapeutic Alliance, featured in the September 2026 issue of The Pinnacle: A Journal by Scholar-Practitioners. Dexter argues that clinicians' own emotional responses (such as fear, helplessness, even relief) aren't a distraction from the work; they shape assessment, intervention, and the therapeutic relationship itself.
