I think you have a real opportunity to bring systemic understandings to this important area. Suicide is usually not an intrapsychic event; it is an interpersonal statement. Multi-deteremined. But we have little in the way of understanding that process, and little evidence to guide us in supporting and healing those who are left behind when suicide is successful.

As one of your colleagues, I look forward to learning your future thoughts as you bring your family therapy training to this new and important area of study. Susan H McDaniel PhD, Professor of Psychiatry & Family Medicine, U of Rochester School of Medicine & Dentistry
