Trauma

Trauma is a deeply impactful and complex experience that can have profound effects on an individual’s mental health. These experiences can disrupt one’s sense of safety, trust, and well-being, leading to a variety of psychological and emotional symptoms such as anxiety, depression, flashbacks, and nightmares.

The Tema Foundation’s trauma workshops and programs are developed to help individuals understand and navigate the effects of trauma and post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) for themselves and the people in their lives. By addressing trauma through education, we empower individuals to better understand their experiences, build resilience, and embark on a path of healing and recovery.

Suicide prevention

Research shows that Public Safety Personnel (PSP, eg. correctional workers, dispatchers, firefighters, paramedics, police) experience higher levels of suicidal behaviour than the general public. The demanding nature of their work, exposure to traumatic events, and long hours under intense pressure can lead to increased vulnerability to mental health struggles.

The Tema Foundation’s Suicide prevention programs are developed to provide knowledge and resources to help better understand, discuss and prevent suicide.
