Couples HOPES (Helping Overcome PTSD and Enhance Satisfaction) is an online guided self-help intervention for couples, including a partner with PTSD symptoms to improve PTSD and enhance relationship functioning. Couple HOPES was built to overcome the stigma associated with seeking mental health services and the logistical, economic, geographic, and social barriers to help. The Couple HOPES research study is currently recruiting for Canadian veterans, service members, and first responders and their partners. Please visit the Couple HOPES website (couplehopes.com) to learn more and to complete the eligibility screening, if you are interested in participating in the research study! Researchers from the IMPACT Lab (https://psychlabs.ryerson.ca/impact/) at Ryerson University have developed Couple HOPES. The IMPACT Lab is committed to developing clinically relevant, original research, aimed at decreasing individual PTSD symptoms, as well as improving relationships.

A confidential support/ therapy group for police officers. H.E.A.R.T. stands for healing, esteem, awakening, reality and trust.
The basic themes of this group of sworn officers, (active, retired, resigned, suspended, on sick leave), meeting weekly for over 21 years. Members are welcome from various services, Toronto, O.P.P., Halton, Peel, R.C.M.P., Durham, York, Hamilton and others. The group is open-ended and there is no charge to participate. (We are grateful to the Toronto Police Association for their ongoing support.) Confidentiality and honesty provide a safe place to discuss emotions, trauma, workplace problems, O.S.I. and/or addiction recovery, depression, relationships and family issues. A partial comment from a group member is “it is brutally honest, 100% trust and join….” We have 2 groups every Wednesday. Meetings are on Zoom until we can include in person attendance again. A pre-group individual introduction is the first step. For further information contact:
