eight weeks, for frontline workers
Trauma Awareness & Recovery Program (TARP)
SiSU Canberra's eight week outpatient trauma recovery program, designed specifically for current or separated frontline workers experiencing psychological illness.
The program brings together clinical trauma psychoeducation with nervous system regulation and somatic recovery practices, including trauma-informed yoga, guided meditation and contrast therapy, supporting both the psychological and physiological aspects of trauma recovery.
Who it is for
TARP is suitable for current or separated frontline workers, including police, paramedics, firefighters, corrections, doctors, specialists, nurses, dispatch and communications staff, and defence personnel, experiencing psychological illness.
That includes post-traumatic stress, depression, anxiety, substance use, moral injury, sleep disturbance and relationship breakdown.
Who leads it
The program is clinically led and facilitated by Lia McInnis, clinical and forensic psychologist, with more than fifteen years of clinical practice and seven years embedded with the Australian Federal Police, specialising in operational trauma and PTSD in frontline professions.
Contact the SiSU team to learn more about the program, discuss suitability and find out about our next intake.
