189. Recognizing the Signs: Suicide Prevention with Alexander Dorsey
As we continue to honor Suicide Prevention Month, Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor Alexander Dorsey returns to share practical insights on mental health, suicide prevention, and supporting college athletes. With six years in private practice, Alex discusses how to recognize warning signs of suicidal thoughts in yourself, friends, and loved ones while introducing the Stanley-Brown Safety Plan as a tool for staying safe during moments of crisis. We also explore how self-care, body awareness, and daily wellness practices can reduce the risk of suicidal ideation—offering guidance, encouragement, and a reminder that you are valuable, you are needed, and you are not alone.
Alex completed his MA in Mental Health Counseling, along with his Bachelor of Arts in Psychology at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles, California. He works with children, adolescents and adults to address their emotional needs. Alex specializes in working with clients experiencing concerns related to depression and trauma. He believes that teaching clients how to process and cope with their emotions allows them to flourish in life. Alex also owns Mending Minds Professional Clinical Counseling, a private practice that caters to African American males of all ages. If you need immediate assistance, be sure to call or text 988, the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline for support.
