Very relevant for anyone in helping professions, but who are not mental health care providers. The instructor's videos are engaging, and the simulation videos give you a clear sense of what and what not to do when conducting a psychological first aid intervention.

I thought the course covered a lot of material.
I would like to have been presented with more psychological background on the critical steps in the program.
I would like to have been presented with the answers to the quiz questions as well as a brief explanation.

Es un curso muy bien estructurado con muchas herramientas que incitan al alumno a seguir adelante, me encantaron las simulaciones donde aprendes la mejor técnica para manejar una crisis , ya que hay una simulación de lo que no se debe de hacer y una de lo que si.

I found this course to be very informative, and I think in today's world, everyone who can take it should do so, regardless if they are in the mental health fields. Professor Everly was clear and concise and engaging. I would love to take another course with him.

This course is a life saver for those always getting depressed or struggle after being a listener. Learn to be a good, comfortable, strong listener. The most important thing in this course is teaching me how to take care myself after being a listener. So sweet!

It has been one of the best courses I have taken. The information seemed very clear to me and the testimonies of survivors make this course unique. Also, the intervention that you would carry out in a crisis situation is explained step by step. 100% recommended!

This is perfect for beginners. As I knew A little about this topic in a more common way, this systematic scientific way prove to be far more efficient than other models used in psychological counselling. I liked the R-A-P-I-D model of Johns Hopkins University.

Un curso de real importancia en cuanto a la preparación y facilitación de primeros auxilios. Un curso bien preparado, debido a que facilitan al estudiante una serie de materiales visuales y auditivos que permiten una fácil comprensión de los temas propuestos.

Very useful introductory course to the PFA. Really well explained, with lot of emphasis on keypoints. Very enriching for psychologists, as it shows us a different way of acting than we would do in normal conditions. It seems well structured and shows validity.
