Critical Incident Stress is trauma that is so overpowering it is beyond our ability to cope. We have nothing that has prepared us to face its aftermath. Critical incidents can be come from conflict, abuse, war, natural disasters, man made disasters, death, witnessing trauma, near death, threats, extreme fear and the list goes on.

Dr. Nancy Bohl-Penrod and I have worked together for more than ten years
