CISD Overview
Critical Incident Stress Debriefing (CISD) is an intervention that occurs on-site at your workplace following a traumatic event. Events may include robbery, downsizing, loss of a co-worker, workplace injuries, accidents, workplace shootings, terroristic threats, or other traumas. Addressing these incidents immediately can help you support your employees during these challenging times. Immediate action helps mitigate the stress and emotional turmoil that often accompany such events, thus fostering a more supportive and resilient work environment.

Purpose and Benefits
The primary objective of CISD and Disruptive Event Management is to alleviate the psychological impact the event can have on your organization and its employees. Our on-site counselors are equipped to deliver immediate, practical support, which is crucial for managing emotional and psychological effects. Our counselors conduct tailored individual and group counseling sessions to address your employees’ immediate needs and facilitate their recovery. Offering this support helps to minimize disruptions and promote a healthier work environment.
Logistics and Onsite Setup
Preparing a quiet, private meeting area is essential for effective counseling sessions. This designated space allows counselors to conduct their sessions with minimal disruption. Additionally, employees should be allocated enough time to engage with the counselors without feeling rushed. We offer individual and group counseling sessions to cater to different needs and preferences. We offer flexible contract options for your organization, including additional sessions as needed. This flexibility ensures that ongoing support is available to address any prolonged or evolving needs, ultimately supporting the long-term well-being of your employees.
