Kim Sverre Larsen is a Lecturer at the National Centre for Suicide Research and Prevention within the Faculty of Medicine, University of Oslo. Based at Ullevål Hospital in Oslo, his work bridges clinical practice and academic research in suicide prevention. He specializes in mental health services, ethical frameworks in psychiatry, and suicide risk assessment protocols.
Larsen's research explores:
- Staff responses to suicide encounters in mental health and substance abuse settings
- Clinical guidelines for suicide risk evaluation
- Ethical dilemmas in coercive psychiatric treatment
- Prevention strategies for high-risk environments (e.g., railways)
- Integration of spiritual factors in clinical assessments
- Historical psychoanalytic case studies (e.g., Anna O)
His publications (2011–2024) demonstrate a consistent focus on improving clinical protocols through qualitative research, with recent work emphasizing staff training and systemic interventions. Earlier articles (2004–2013) include critical reappraisals of psychoanalytic history and healthcare infrastructure design.
Larsen collaborates with the research group Clinical research on suicidal and self-harming behaviour, contributing to Norway's national suicide prevention initiatives.
