Peer Support

Our days are busier than ever, and it can be tough to stay afloat. To assist, we wanted to share the resources at our disposal to navigate these challenging times better.

Through the Employee Assistance Program of our city, The Counseling Team International offers professional assistance 24/7 via their monitored number (1-800-222-9691). What makes this service even more special is that they have Mental Health professionals with personal connections to public safety - many having been members themselves or family related within the police, fire, and EMS services; imparting an understanding of the culture necessary for successful counseling both professionally as well as personally.

1.

Once the 1-800-222-9691 number is called, The Counseling Team will begin gathering information about your needs, where you are located, and what they can do for you. Sometimes this is a counselor, but this can also be a support staff member.

2.

The Counseling Team will find one of their mental health professionals to meet with you or speak with you as soon as possible. This is not a ‘we don’t have any openings for the next three weeks’ type of deal. You will speak to someone that day or night.

3.

The city is eventually billed for the services, but no personal information is given in the billing process. The city essentially receives a bill for ‘Counseling Services’, which is about it as far as details go.
