Critical Incidents and Debriefings

Thunder Bay Counselling provides critical incident response services to help business and workplaces impacted by a traumatic event or critical incident. It is recognized that a professional response can reduce the psychological impact for those who were involved in or witness to the event. Any event or incident that has a real or perceived potential to temporarily overwhelm an individual or group’s ability to cope may benefit from this service.

In the first 24 hours following an event, we can assist with normalizing physical and emotional responses, assist with stabilizing the situation, and improving safety and coping mechanisms. In the days after a event, we can assist people with balancing their responses, separating themselves from the event, and improving coping.
