This inspiring resource presents theories, findings, and
interventions from Positive Suicidology, an emerging
strengths-based approach to suicide prevention. Its synthesis of
positive psychology and suicidology theories offers a science-based
framework for promoting wellbeing to complement or, if appropriate,
replace traditional deficit-driven theories and therapies used in
reducing suicidal thoughts and behaviors. Coverage reviews
interpersonal, intrapersonal, and societal risk factors for
suicide, and identifies protective factors, such as hope and
resilience, that can be enhanced in therapy. From there, chapters
detail a palette of approaches and applications of Positive
Suicidology, from the powerful motivating forces described in
Self-Determination Theory to meaning-building physical and social
activities. Among the topics covered: Future-oriented constructs
and their role in suicidal ideation and enactment. Gratitude as a
protective factor for suicidal ideation and behavior: theory and
evidence. Considering race and ethnicity in the use of positive
psychological approaches to suicide. The Six R's framework as
mindfulness for suicide prevention. Community-based participatory
research and empowerment for suicide prevention. Applied resiliency
and suicide prevention: a strengths-based, risk-reduction
framework. Psychotherapists, counselors, social workers,
psychiatrists, and health psychologists, as well as educators,
clergy and healthcare professionals, will find A Positive
Psychological Approach to Suicide an invaluable source of
contemporary evidence-based strategies for their prevention and
intervention efforts with suicidal clients.
