Announcement | Tribal Psychology
I am incredibly proud to announce that Tribal Psychology has been successful in securing the Panel Contract for the Provision of Employee Assistance Program (EAP) services for both the Northern Territory Police and the Northern Territory Fire and Emergency Service.
As a former Correctional Officer and Intelligence/Investigations Officer, I find this work deeply personal and profoundly rewarding. I have stood beside officers, worked within high-pressure operational environments, and lived the realities that come with the job. I have also carried my own experiences of PTSD, both professionally and personally — so when I say I get it, I truly mean that.
There is a unique weight that emergency service and policing roles carry. The exposure, the responsibility, the silence, and the expectation to “just keep going” can take a heavy toll. Being able to now support those who serve our community in these roles is an honour I do not take lightly.
I am honoured to work with all emergency personnel, but I am particularly excited to be working with Indigenous staff, especially within policing. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander officers often carry an additional and complex load — cultural responsibility, community expectations, and frontline duties — and it is vital that this is understood, respected, and supported in a culturally safe way.
This work matters. The people doing it matter. And providing genuine, informed, trauma-aware support is something I am deeply committed to.
