Psychosocial Debrief
A safe space with a trained therapist for a group or individual to reflect on and process thoughts and feelings following a work trip.
Description
When returning home from a deployment, it can be hard to adjust to normal life.
If the work was especially demanding, or in a high risk location, or in an unfamiliar culture, it can leave someone with a lot to process. But even for more routine trips, there is often a lot to reflect upon.
If left to linger, these thoughts, feelings and memories may cause problems. Poor focus. Low energy. A lack of confidence. Even conflict at work. But if discussed in a healthy way, they are an opportunity to find new meaning and motivation in life and work.
A Psychosocial Debrief is a chance to discuss these things in confidence, with a professional and supportive facilitator, in order to learn, grow and smooth the transition back to their regular role(s).
OUTCOMES
✅ Reflect on what went well and what went less well
