Psychological First Aid Course
This course is designed for anyone 16 years (recommended) or older who is interested in learning about how psychology plays just as important a role as physical first aiders in our day-to-day lives. Psychological First Aid teaches participants about the effects of stress, loss, trauma and grief of themselves and others. It is important for participants to understand these effects so they are able to help themselves or others handle life’s challenges or mental health issues.
We all know someone who is suffering with their mental health whether that is from stress, trauma or grief. What we may not know is how they are coping with their problem. Many of those who are suffering require emotional and psychological support in order to properly heal.
This course focuses on self-care and personal protection so participants can learn to build resiliency against these challenges and maintain a proper balance of their mental, emotional and physical health. Not only will you learn how to help yourself, you will also learn how to identify and prevent stress for others and become a caring, supportive listener.

A trial will convince you.
Samuel Bernard Balogun
I really appreciate her and recommend her to anyone who wants to partake of the trainings
In addition, the online courses really did help however it would be better if there were video presentations that would sum up the information as there was way too much to read. Otherwise great experience would definitely recommend Selina as an instructor and coast2coast to get your SFA cirtification.
I especially appreciated how patient and encouraging she was—whether it was practicing compressions or using the AED, she took the time to guide us properly. Now, I feel so much more prepared to handle emergencies, and that’s all thanks to Lydia’s great teaching!
Ifyou’re looking for a CPR instructor who truly cares and makes learning enjoyable, I highly recommend her. Thanks again, Lydia!
This keeps it genuine, appreciative, and relatable while still professional. Let me know if you’d like any tweaks!
This is my second time training here, and I am very satisfied. The instructor explained everything clearly, making the key concepts easy to remember. I was able to refine my techniques during hands-on practice and learned a lot. I’m even considering enrolling my daughter so she can be prepared for any unexpected situations in the future. Highly recommend!
