Psychological Support Services

Pre-Production
Welfare & Support Planning

We work with production teams during the early stages of development to ensure psychological wellbeing is built into the format from the start. Our support includes welfare planning, risk identification, and guidance on ethical storytelling so productions can move forward with confidence and robust duty-of-care processes in place.

Psychological
Consultation

Our consultants provide expert psychological and mental health advice throughout the production process. We support producers, editorial teams, and welfare staff in navigating complex contributor situations, managing sensitive content, and ensuring the wellbeing of everyone involved in the production.

Fitness For
Inclusion Assessments

We conduct professional psychological assessments to determine whether contributors are suitable to participate in a programme. Through structured interviews and wellbeing screening, we ensure participants understand the experience, can give informed consent, and are supported appropriately throughout the production.

Pre-Transmission
Support

We prepare contributors for the emotional and practical impact of broadcast. This includes guidance around public attention, social media, and managing expectations about how their story may be received by audiences.

On-Set
Psychological Support

Our psychological team provide real-time support during filming to help maintain a safe and supportive environment for contributors and crew. This includes wellbeing check-ins, emotional support during challenging moments, and guidance for production teams when welfare concerns arise.

Transmission and Post-Broadcast Support

Our support continues while programmes are on air and afterwards. We check in with contributors during broadcast, helping them navigate media attention, public reaction, and any emotional challenges that may arise.

Post-Filming Support

After filming concludes, we offer structured debriefs and wellbeing check-ins to help contributors process their experience and transition back to everyday life. Our post-filming support ensures participants feel supported beyond the production environment.
