Support is Nearby," was held for military psychologists in Velyatyno (Zakarpattia region). The training was organized by the NGO "Community Self-Help" with financial support from the Ukrainian diaspora organization "Friends of Chervonohrad and in partnership with the Military Institute of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv (MIKNU) and the NGO Rotary Club "Kyiv Pectoral."Under the memorandum signed between the Military Institute of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv (MIKNU) and the NGO "Community Self-Help," a training program for military psychologists was developed. The "Intensive Group Therapy" program provides the necessary training to address mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, and other emotional states resulting from the war."Intensive group therapy focuses on overcoming trauma, finding hope, and love to move forward. When I heard these words from the trainers, I realized that this is the program Ukrainian psychologists need to be effective in situations of distress," said Vitaliy Kharechko, chairman of the board of the NGO "Community Self-Help. And although the preparation and organization of the training required significant efforts from both our organization and our partners, today we can confidently say that the military psychologists have restored their resources, gained new knowledge and skills, and joined the best global psychotherapeutic practices."
