EMBRACING LIFE
In 2017-18, in the wake of a troubling number of suicides by former Summit clients, members of the administration increased our commitment to prevent the “next one” and set up a special program called “Embracing Life” that helps individuals with mental challenges who are known to be at higher risk of suicide.
Our therapy approach is based on DBT and responds to
behavior that manifests itself in impulsive tendencies or other potentially-harmful outlets. The program offers tools for dealing with destructive urges to harm oneself. Over the course of the group therapy, we work closely to explain the value of life. We don’t ignore the challenges in life but help find the tools to deal with them in a productive and positive manner.
