What this Trial Is About
This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Brief Cognitive Behavioral Therapy delivered via telehealth in reducing suicidal thoughts and attempts among people with physical disabilities. The study focuses on individuals who have experienced suicidal ideation recently or have attempted suicide within the past month. It is designed to better understand how this non-medication therapy works for people with vision, hearing, or mobility impairments. Participants will receive 12 sessions of Brief Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, specifically adapted for those with physical disabilities. These sessions are conducted remotely through telehealth, allowing participants to engage from their own location. The therapy schedule typically spans around three months. Throughout the study, researchers will measure changes in suicidal thoughts weekly using a specialized scale and assess self-injurious behaviors during the treatment period. Participants will be evaluated regularly to monitor progress and safety. The total study duration includes treatment completion, with ongoing assessments during this time to understand the therapy's impact.
