Training/Instruction & Consultation supports and trains mental health therapists in the treatment of traumatic stress including Basic and Advanced EMDRIA approved training and consultation in EMDR for basic training, certification, and approved consultants and treatment of traumatic stress with specific populations including military and first responders and their families.

Passageway, Inc. FRS-TR provides instruction/trainings and consultation for protective service workers/First Responders in the development of peer support, creation of First Responder Support response teams, and specific training and ongoing continuing education to first responders on rendering psychological first aide and supporting their peers as they support their communities.

First Responder Support (FRS) rose out a series of disturbing events: the aftermath of September 11th; our military engagement overseas that followed and involved our children; terrorism's constant threat; response to a multitude of disasters with the Red Cross; responding, supporting, witnessing and managing the effect of critical incidents with first responder teams including line of duty and the toll of the work deaths; and more recently the toll of the global pandemic on our first responder/healthcare workers.  The needs of those of us who respond with heart and soul in the line of duty to others experiencing a critical incident became clear. FRS was created in response to support resilience and hardiness for all of us who witness and expose ourselves to physical and psychological traumatic stress to care for the health and safety of others.

Mental Health Counseling integrates Best Practices and Evidence-Based Treatments into a holistic approach adapted to each person or system’s goals. Passageway acknowledges diversity and strives to meet individual, family, and organizational needs within their unique context and systems. Personal change is facilitated in a client-centered approach within a safe, caring, accepting, and empathic therapeutic relationship. Although medical knowledge may inform treatment options, Passageway recognizes the complexity and uniqueness of individuals beyond reductionist diagnoses.
