Frequently Asked Questions

Trauma usually involves a critical incident that requires immediate assistance. Critical incidents can include workplace accidents, violence, explosions, fires, hold ups, and terrorism, which can seriously impact the people and immediate operation of an organisation. TCA’s intervention model offers immediate counselling and trauma management in order to alleviate immediate stress and reduce the likelihood of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Assistance can be provided at the incident site, at home, at our offices, by phone or internet, or at another suitable location.

Debriefing is a specific type of counselling that deals with initial shock following a trauma. Although some people do not realize they are experiencing shock, debriefing can help minimise any effects thereafter.
