We are specialized counselors primarily working with fire fighters, law enforcement, corrections, medics, healthcare professionals, and military. We have the experience, training and skills to effectively treat these populations. We understand the impact these professions
have on our client’s lives, and their families.
Our staff have an extensive background in several therapeutic modalities and medical techniques. They are certified to teach and train a variety of classes. They can also customize a program for your team or organization. If you have already have a topic or want to explore an idea, contact us and we can help fine tune the details. We can design the presentation, provide accommodations, and present the material. Or we can do al la carte.
We offer specialized health and wellness programs by a Professional Competiting Trainer. If you are serious about getting into shape and need accountability, we can offer professional services including an eating plan (macro/micro nutrients), an exercise/training regimen, and
weekly counseling to keep you on track. We can also offer wellness programs for groups, practices, corporations and departments.
This is specifically designed for fire departments, police departments, jails, and health care facilities. When your department is involved in a critical incident or when a colleague has a mental health crisis, it can have an effect on our own emotions and mental state. As helpers,
we are naturally more empathetic towards others. This can cloud our own judgement, impact our mood, interfere with sleep, and even cause slight depression or anxiety symptoms. These incidents can have a significant impact on the entire team. Not to mention the stress it has on the chiefs, supervisors, and managers who have to maintain the moral of the team, while trying to manage their own emotions. If it’s a fatal incident such as a shooting or death by suicide, the media gets involved which adds another layer of stress and anxiety. From the moment a crisis begins, pick up the phone and give us a call. We can provide CISM’s, debriefings, counseling, postventions, education and a Mental Wellness Plan. We are even trained to manage the media for you. In these situations, it’s important for you to take care of you, and let us take care of everything else.
Do you have an employee you are worried about and don’t know how to approach the situation? Most departments will have an encounter with a troubled colleague at some point. Most managers will naturally call 911. This isn’t always the best method. In fact, it can lead to more problems. Most managers don’t receive training on how to identify the signs of a struggling colleague and the proper way to approach them. Our team will teach you how to be pro-active to help prevent crisis situations all together. One in three people have anxiety, one in five have a substance abuse issue and one in four have depression, not to mention the difficulties of just trying to deal with the day to day obstacles life gives us. The point is, there are several people right now who are showing signs of a major mental break down approaching
and the people around them are questioning the signs because they’ve never been educated. Sadly, the people with the signs aren’t going to ask for help, and the people who want to help aren’t confident enough to approach the people who need help. We will educate you and your team and customize a plan for any future situations.
