Service Description

Sonny Provetto, LICSW, is the Clinical Director at the Vermont Center for Responder Wellness. Sonny developed the Acute Stress Adaptive Protocol (ASAP) which is an EMDR based intervention that is used both as a screening tool and a therapeutic treatment for emergency responders to assess and care for their mental health in the immediate aftermath of responding to crisis. The Acute Stress Adaptive Protocol is Preferred By First Responders Because: The experience stays confidential: no need to re-tell and relive the event Can be administered by a trusted peer in group or individual setting Shorter and more concise process aligns with the procedural training and skill set of emergency responders. Each session takes about one hour and can be conducted anywhere that is private and quiet. The ASAP is a free service available to help responders desensitize traumatic events which can increase responder's abilities to handle the next traumatic event.
