Addiction & Substance Use

Our therapists have trainings and specialize in working with teens and adults who are struggling with addiction.

Critical Incident Stress Debriefing

Critical Incidents are events which cause a pronounced stress response and ripple effect, within the community, an organization or business. Our Certified CISD Facilitators are also trauma-informed therapists, who offer a structured debriefing discussion (and follow up, if needed) to help those impacted by major stressors and critical events - to process the impact, provide psychoeducation, and coping strategies to resource your team and prevent long-term impacts on an individual and organizational level. We welcome you to connect with us to discuss your debriefing needs. We will tailor our approach to fit your situation, team and needs.

Depending on the size of your team, and the nature of the critical incident, we may recommend a 4 hour debriefing, or 2 hours, with a 2 hour follow up. Debriefing length and follow up can be tailored to your needs.
