About this listen

Welcome to the Never the Same Podcast! Today, we dive into the science of suicide prevention with Jacinta Hawgood, a clinical psychologist, senior lecturer, and researcher at Griffith University.

Host Tony Pisani is joined by Jacinta, a leader in the field with nearly 25 years of experience, to discuss how structured approaches like the STARS Protocol are reshaping conversations about suicide. Together, they explore:

  • How STARS (Systematic Tailored Assessment for Responding to Suicidality) bridges structured tools and personal stories.
  • Why protective factors and client-driven care are essential for meaningful interventions.
  • How suicide prevention is evolving, with new roles for non-clinical professionals and lived experience leaders.
  • The biggest misconceptions about suicide, including fears around asking direct questions.

Jacinta also reflects on her career, how her thinking has changed over time, and why listening deeply is at the heart of effective care.
