abstract="This article examines the experience of surviving a suicidal act. An existential-phenomenological approach is used to discuss this complex and intense human experience. Survivors' psychological suffering and their potential for finding in this experience an opportunity for growth are addressed. A dialectical resolution of the paradox of life and death is described as the catalyst for transcendence. Particular attention is given to the promotion of such healing in the course of psychotherapy with survivors of suicide. © 1993, Sage Publications, INC.
