Group Defusings
When we hear the term "defusing" we picture cutting the red wire! We are trying to prevent an "explosion" or other damage related to exposure to a critical or traumatic event.
Often we use one-on-one support. But sometimes, particularly in large-scale events, a group defusing is much better suited. This is because people are more readily able to be helped when they are open to help, supported by the peers that they experienced the event with. They can see that their feelings and experiences are not solely their own and therefore are more willing to help and be helped.
Faith-Based
Our program is rooted in Christian values of caring and seeking the best for others. This is NOT a religious program, but a program based on the principle of love and care for one's neighbor, regardless of his or her own religious convictions. There is no preaching or judgment. Only a desire for your physical and mental well-being!
Scientifically/Psychologically Sound
We use proven techniques in helping and educating others in how to manage their stress response, how to alleviate future stress problems, how to take care of the mind and body in order to build resilience, and help people get their lives back on track. Our proven techniques, in use since the 80's, reduce lost work hours, reduce medical and mental health costs and reduce the incidences of PTSD, anxiety and depression in many cases. THIS IS NOT MENTAL HEALTH. In some instances, it may be necessary to refer a client to outside care.
