Abstract	The COVID-19 pandemic has affected human lives to the core which resulted in suicidal ideations among many people, and various people attempting suicide. The present study aims to 1) assess suicidal ideation, depression, and anxiety among patients who reported at the clinic for psychosocial counseling for COVID-19 condition, and 2) examine the effectiveness of the Holistic Health Practice Model (HHPM) in preventing suicidal ideation. In a pretest-posttest control group design, 60 patients (above the age of 18 years) were chosen for the two groups – Experimental group (N=30; male-15, female-15) and Controlled group (n=30; male-15, female-15). Data was collected and analyzed from August 2021 to June 2022. Both the groups were initially assessed for suicidal ideation, anxiety, and depression using the Modified Scale for Suicidal Ideation (MSSI), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), and Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II) respectively. The experimental group received the Holistic Health Practice Model (HHPM) as an intervention for 24 weeks. The mean difference was calculated using a paired t-test method. Baseline assessment indicates that both groups were similar before the therapy. Post-therapy assessment shows a significant difference between the experimental and controlled groups (t value: MSSI – 24.47 > 0.05, BAI – 12.9 > 0.05, BDI – 28.16 > 0.05). Significant differences were also found in pre and post-therapy assessment of the experimental group (t value: MSSI – 43.26 > 0.05, BAI – 19.13 > 0.05, BDI – 24.13 > 0.05). The result indicates the Holistic Health Practice Model (HHPM) to be a successful model in reducing suicidal ideation, anxiety, and depression.
