A new clinician is working with a client who’s expressed some suicidality at times. She's worried about him and thinks it might be a good idea to have him sign a no-suicide contract, but she's heard mixed things about them and isn't sure what to do. Here, four therapists offer their advice.

A therapist recommends exercises like journaling prompts and guided mediations that she feels would benefit her clients between sessions.

Recently, a therapist has found herself losing steam. She mentally checks out when clients are talking, and constantly feels exhausted.

Here, five therapists offer their advice.
