Abstract
The author, a licensed marriage and family therapist, briefly describes his therapy with a male patient who had suicidal ideation over a broken relationship with a lover. The patient had agreed to at least a half-dozen "no-harm contracts" to not kill himself. However, the patient no-showed at his next visit, and was found by police to have taken his life.
