Dr. Konrad Michel’s “The Suicidal Person” offers a groundbreaking perspective on suicide prevention. He is the founder of the internationally successful program ASSIP (Attempted Suicide Short Intervention Program) therapy, a training program that has helped thousands of mental health professionals worldwide. Dr. Michel is a professor emeritus in the psychology department at the University of Bern, Switzerland.
In this book, now available in Albanian, and drawing from decades of experience and hundreds of patient interviews, Michel challenges the traditional view of suicide as merely a consequence of mental illness. Instead, he presents suicide as a deeply personal action rooted in an individual’s life story and experiences of extreme emotional pain.
Michel introduces a person-centered approach to treatment, emphasizing the importance of understanding each patient’s unique narrative.
The book provides valuable insights for both professionals and laypeople, offering practical advice for those at risk and their loved ones. Michel’s compassionate and rigorous approach aims to change attitudes towards suicide, ultimately saving lives through better understanding and prevention strategies.
