Background and Objectives: Suicide rates for young Black males continue to increase in the US. The young Black male population is a difficult population to engage in mental health treatment due to denial, resistance, and cultural stigma. Hip-Hop Therapy interventions use written and oral expressions for strengthening emotional regulation, building coping skills, and developing self-confidence. Suicide prevention using Hip-Hop Therapy principles can be a solution for treating suicidal behaviors for young Black males. The therapeutic intervention model discussed in this paper is a short-term intervention, but it gives the client an opportunity to seek out the clinician if additional treatment is needed. This innovative model can change the way clinicians approach treatment with young Black males.
