A chief psychologist and specialist when you need one

Duty of care for staff is now a top priority for all organizations, especially in the media industry, where the challenges are even greater. Journalists are often on the front lines, exposed to potential trauma, while office staff can face vicarious trauma.

We have extensive experience advising and consulting for some of the biggest names in media, even in the most challenging situations. Our services include developing global wellbeing strategies, creating high-risk management plans, designing trauma care programs, and implementing peer support initiatives. We also offer chief medical officer support for any medical advice you may need.

Below are examples of the services we provide. Book a consultation to discuss your specific needs and discover how we can assist you.

 We can help you design and implement strategies that follow workplace best practices and clinical guidelines for additional needs. Whether you aim to become trauma-informed or cultivate a thriving workforce, we have the tools to support you. We’ll assess your organization’s needs using surveys, reviews, and audits, giving you clear insights and guidance on the next steps. 

Psychosocial risks are aspects of work that potentially cause harm. Harm may  include stress, trauma and physical health risks. We have designed and implemented psychosocial risk assessment for global media organisations for both staff members and also contributors, helping organisations meet their duty of care obligations. These risk assessments can then help you target interventions and monitor their effectiveness.

Critical incidents are a frequent reality in the media, no matter where you are. We can help you develop processes that support the mental health of your staff and ensure everyone is prepared. We’ll work with you to create these processes and provide ongoing support whenever you need it.  

Trauma Care Programmes are packages of support which may involve your internal partners, and different third party suppliers. We can help you develop the processes, and provide additional support if you need it.

Our team members have experience of developing and delivering media-specific programmes of peer support across the globe. We design and develop training, monitoring and governance, and continuing professional development to make sure your peers are competent and confident in their skills.

We can provide training for leaders and managers, staff members and specific roles such as HR and safety professionals to support them with the knowledge they need to prevent concerns developing, protect and promote thriving at work and provide support where it is needed.
