Aeschi West: Basic Principles in Working with Suicidal Patients” will be the inaugural theme of a Mayo Clinic-sponsored three-day conference in Vail, Colorado, May 30-June 1, 2013. Organized around highly interactive lectures, videotaped interviews, seminars, and workshops, a limited number of participants will come to the Rockies to learn an innovative approach for working with suicidal patients. Drawing upon principles developed in a series of conferences at Aeschi, Switzerland, the Aeschi approach emphasized the importance of therapist-client collaboration in eliciting narratives of mental anguish that culminate in suicidal behavior.
