title: Suicide: what is in the clinician's mind?
abstract: The assessment and treatment of the suicidal patient challenge all clinicians, regardless of training or theoretical orientation, to draw upon their knowledge and judgment to formulate the best treatment plan possible. As great as the influence of demographics, genetics, and psychobiology are, what is in the mind of the clinician, whether it is anxiety, confidence, knowledge, or uncertainty, will determine the fate of the suicidal patient.
