Inpatient Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy to Reduce Suicide Risk Post-Discharge

The goal of this randomized-controlled trial is to determine whether adding brief cognitive-behavioral therapy for suicide prevention (BCBT) to inpatient treatment improves suicide-related outcomes after the person leaves the hospital. The study will also determine whether being diagnosed with a substance use disorder impacts these outcomes. Participants will either receive treatment as usual or treatment as usual plus up to four sessions of BCBT during their inpatient stay. They will complete monthly follow-up assessments for six months after leaving the hospital.
