Dr. DenBoer added that mental health services are important in the aftermath of a traumatic event. He said most survivors, witnesses, and even those who happened to be in the vicinity often suffer emotional repercussions after such an event. Since the Las Vegas shooting, various groups, such as the Southern Nevada Health District and the Las Vegas Mental Health Collaborative, have been providing support to victims.
"One of the most important things to remember after such a tragedy is you don't have to go through it alone," Dr. DenBoer shares. "Help is available, whether through professional services or community support networks.
During the webinar, Dr. John DenBoer will lead participants through accessing local mental health resources and share with them the value of early intervention. The sooner people reach out for help, the greater their potential is to manage emotional distress and avoid further, longer-term mental health complications. Dr. John DenBoer will also provide practical steps the participants can employ to seek assistance and begin a process of recovery.
Building Resilience: Practical Tools for Emotional Recovery
A major component of the webinar will revolve around resiliency following trauma. Dr. DenBoer will give practical evidence-based tools that will fortify emotional health. The techniques involving mindfulness and meditation to the most simplistic, self-caring practices all function to make lives manageable through times of stress and into recovery from the emotional consequences of trauma.
“The goal of this session is not only to understand the emotions triggered by trauma but also to offer tangible ways to cope with and overcome those feelings,” Dr. DenBoer says.“We'll talk about daily practices that help individuals stay grounded and emotionally strong, even when facing grief or anxiety.”
Dr. John DenBoer encourages participants to insert small, easy steps into daily life to support mental health. Whether through relaxation exercises or engaging in rewarding social contact, these small steps can go a long way toward facilitating healing.
*** Continuing Mental Health Awareness and Support ***
Dr. John DenBoer will discuss the importance of ongoing awareness regarding one's mental health long after the tragedy. "Emotional recovery is a process that unfolds over time," he said.
