The ideas is that the client will stay safe until the next session, where they can be reassessed, and the contract revised and re-signed as needed.
Often that date is the next time the client and therapist will meet.
Still, I was worried enough that I didn’t want to simply send them on their way without doing something. This client would have been considered too low-risk for hospitalization or other crisis services. No-harm contracts involve a signed commitment from the client, stating that they will not do anything to harm themselves or anyone else before a specific date.Ī few years ago, one of my clients told me he had been thinking a bit about suicide, however he said he did not have a specific plan or intent.
