Suicide therapy?: Do you mean treatment for someone who is suicidal? Such a person may need hospitalization on an inpatient psychiatry unit to start with. Psychiatrists, nurses, psychologists, social workings, and occupational therapists are the main professionals working together to help patients on such units. Physician-assisted suicide is illegal in most states; extensive regulations in those allowing it.
