Summary
This study looks at whether a four-session therapy called Brief Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (BCBT) is acceptable and practical for adults hospitalized after a suicide attempt or at high risk. About 32 participants will receive the therapy plus usual care, and researchers will interview patients and staff to see what helps or hinders its use. The goal is to gather information to design a larger future trial.
