I have utilized this template, created by Stanley & Brown, many times with clients who were not in immediate danger but who may have expressed some thoughts related to self-harm or suicidality. It helps the client have a tangible guide to reference when they feel dysregulated. Filling out this form can be a collaboration between counselor and client in-session, but should largely be client-driven to ensure that they identify steps they would actually feel comfortable taking.
