Service Description

Provides public safety personnel with access to structured, online mental health supports to help develop skills and knowledge to manage mental health challenges connected to the profession. The courses combine online learning modules with weekly support from a therapist by secure email or telephone.

One of two courses will be offered, depending on level of need, following an online screening assessment and consultation with a PSPNET councillor:
  • PSP Wellbeing Course: Education and guidance on techniques for various mental health concerns, such as depression, anxiety and/or post-traumatic injuries
  • PSP PTSD Course: focuses specifically on helping individuals who are primarily concerned with symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder
Courses run for 8 weeks, but, can be extended to 16 weeks in some cases.
