Trauma Recovery Process Group

Linda Marston, MS, LMFT, will lead a one-day EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) group.  This is a hands-on experience where you will learn and practice these skills: Self Calming, Resourcing, Containment, Mindfulness, and Group EMDR processing.  These skills have been researched and proven to reduce trauma related symptoms. Ms. Marston has hosted similar groups in Butte County post-Camp Fire with positive feedback from those participants.

MDLIVE Behavioral Health Services - available to employees covered under a BSSP+SISC Medical plan
​

Website:  https://members.mdlive.com/sisc/landing_home
Phone #:  888-632-2738

When dealing with struggles brought on by the Camp Fire, or just life in general, it helps to have someone to talk to. Whether it’s stress, anxiety, depression or sudden loss, MDLIVE can help. Speak with a licensed therapist on your schedule, from wherever you're located. Don’t go it alone, MDLIVE is here for you!

How can you connect to a therapist?
There are two ways to connect with a therapist - either by phone or through secure video.
  • Once you get to the MDLIVE home page, you can start looking for a therapist that is licensed in the state where you’re located. You can filter therapist profiles by gender, language or specialty. In each of the therapists’ profiles you will find their credentials, specialties, and schedules of available appointment times.
  • Once you choose the therapist with whom you would like to speak, you can schedule the appointment time that works best for you. If you haven’t created an MDLIVE account yet, you will be asked to create a profile. You will then confirm your payment and your appointment time.
  • If you are seeing your therapist by phone, your therapist will call you at your scheduled appointment time.
  • If you are seeing a therapist by video, you will log on to MDLIVE at your scheduled appointment time, and the website will direct you to begin a secure video visit with your therapist. You may be need to complete a one-time download of our secure video application.
If you have any issues setting up your account, our care coordinators are available to answer any questions 24/7/365 at 888-632-2738.
