If you are a partner organisation of ours, supporting individuals who have survived collective violence, or you have members of your team who have been psychologically affected as part of their duties, you can refer them for evidence based and compassionate psychological support.
Our team of clinical and counselling psychologists have specialist expertise in this area, and offer a collaborative, trauma-informed and empowering approach to assessment, formulation and treatment. We aim to meet people's individual treatment goals as quickly as possible, whilst reducing distress and increasing people's functioning in ways that are important to them.
Please see our inclusion and exclusion criteria prior to making a referral. If you wish to make a referral, please email info@tt-intl.org.
Our clinical team have a weekly allocations meeting, where we discuss new referrals. If there are reasons that we cannot accept a new referral, we will let you know why this is.
When we accept a referral, we will make an agreement with the client and then undertake a two-part assessment. We then decide whether they are suitable for treatment with us. If not, we will let the referrer and the client know the reasons for this and signpost to a more appropriate service, wherever possible.
When we accept, we then make a treatment plan, and discuss the likely length of treatment with referrers to ensure that this can be funded.
At times, we have funding that allows us to provide treatment for free, and will always let you know if that would be the case at the point of receiving referrals. Where this is not the case, there would be a charge to organisations. We advise that costs for treatment are available prior to making a referral. If you would like to discuss potential referrals, or estimated costs for treatment, email info@tt-intl.org.
