Participants must be able to communicate in English, live in New York State during treatment, and not suffer from acute psychiatric instability like psychosis.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares a new short intervention program designed for those who've recently attempted suicide against the standard Zero Suicide care. It aims to find an effective, brief, and low-cost therapy that can reduce future suicide attempts.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves psychological interventions rather than medications, side effects may include emotional distress or discomfort during discussions about sensitive topics such as previous suicide attempts.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Zero Suicide Usual Care + ASSIPExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients in this treatment arm will receive ASSIP brief therapy in addition to being able to access any usual care as recommended by their provider. ASSIP is a manualized, three-session intervention, delivered either in-person or via telehealth: In Session 1, the therapist guides the patient in telling the story of their attempt. The session is video recorded. In Session 2, the therapist and patient sit side-by-side to view selections of the video, working together to understand the feelings and events that preceded the attempt. The patient is assigned a homework task. In Session 3, the therapist and patient create a summary of the suicide attempt and what led up to it, along with creating a personal safety plan.
Group II: Zero Suicide Usual CareActive Control1 Intervention
In Onondaga County, New York State (NYS) aims to implement a countywide "Zero Suicide Safety Net" of providers who share enhanced protocols for clinical care, staff training, and data collection (improved coding of suicidal behavior). Participating behavioral health systems have agreed to common protocols for clinical care, training, and data collection. Participating providers receive robust training in suicide prevention best practices. Because of the wide participation of mental health facilities in the NYS Office of Mental Health (OMH) Zero Suicide project, most subjects who engage in outpatient treatment will receive that treatment in facilities that are adopting NYS Zero Suicide protocols. Those who do not engage in care will nonetheless experience enhanced transition and follow-up contact from the services from which they are discharged.
