Military Pilot Critical Incident Support

Let go of your fears and fly

In every career of a military pilot, especially in your initial training and later in combat missions, you might find situations that are out of the ordinary and need your special attention. Every pilot learns how to deal with stressful situations. Nevertheless, sometimes our organism reacts unexpectedly with more stress which we lose control of. For example, in situations of:

Technical failure of aircraft/helicopter
Aircraft/helicopter accidents
Loss and family issues
Combat mission
G-Lock
Negative experience with underwater / survival training

In the event of a traumatic experience, the entire organism usually comes under immense stress to ensure its survival. This can result in severe and long-lasting psychological stress. And can lead to heavy negative emotions, such as anger, frustration, shame, guilt, and anxiety, and an inner rejection to talk about it. This sort of reaction is completely normal. Under high level of stress, your brain is not able to speak.

TASMA® Military Pilot Critical Incident Support offers you a special «First Aid» programme to prevent high levels of stress, anxiety, and trauma (PTSD). This support is also available for your military team and family members.

Resource-oriented, holistic support with bottom-up and top-down approaches

TASMA® military critical incident support stands for a gentle way of working that understands stress, anxiety, and trauma in its complexity and perceives the symptoms and dynamics. It ensures security and better integration of the experience.

We work with highly efficient and scientifically based short-term coaching and psychological tools, that allow us to prevent and dissolve stress, anxiety, and trauma more effectively and sustainably.

And the good thing about it - you don't even need to talk about it if you don't want to.
With a simple, but scientifically confirmed, muscle test, stress triggers can be revealed fast and sustainably processed.

The following three phases are important in our critical incident support program:

Stabilisation and affect regulation
Processing stress, anxiety, and trauma (exposure)
Integration

Bottom-up approaches start from the body and also bring about a change in feelings and cognition through bodywork, such as trauma-sensitive yoga. Here you will get to know your body and nervous system better and how you can stabilise and regulate yourself. This helps you to deal better with strong emotions and feelings (the so-called «triggers»).

Top-down approaches change your mindset and thus influence your feelings and body reactions. Psychoeducation is also included to give a better understanding about the background of combat stress, anxiety, and trauma.
For example:

How your symptoms arose
What neurobiological connections there are
What protective mechanisms your system uses
What the reason for it is

This allows you to understand and classify things better and gives you more trust and self-confidence.
