Emotional Support

Dealing with a board complaint or disciplinary process can be emotionally devastating. We can refer you to HARBR trusted therapists who are both familiar with these matters and able to provide the extra privacy-assurances needed by licensees at these times. Broadly, many licensees who are subjected to board allegations experience a PTSD-like syndrome in any or all its manifestations. Increasingly recognized is something called Medical Malpractice Stress Syndrome (MMSS). Once associated with physicians and malpractice, the syndrome is now known to affect professionals in any healthcare field. Too, coming to light is the likelihood that facing a board disciplinary process is even more devastating that a malpractice suit in and of itself. Although some HARBR members are therapists, and members are free to make arrangements as they please, beyond referrals, our primary ambition is to provide effective “peer” support.
