Abstract

In this article, I provide commentary on the Rudd et al. (2009) article advocating thorough informed consent with suicidal clients. I examine the Rudd et al. recommendations in light of their previous empirical-research and clinical-practice articles on suicidality, and from the perspective of clinical practice with suicidal clients in university counseling center settings. I conclude that thorough informed consent is a clinical intervention that is still in preliminary stages of development, necessitating empirical research and clinical training before actual implementation as an ethical clinical intervention.
