Local Counselor (Psychologist) - Framework Agreement

  1. RI is now seeking to engage professional providers of psychosocial support services with whom we can establish a formal and long-term relationship. Our aim is to strengthen organizational and individual resilience and to better support our staff who work in challenging roles and often in fragile settings.  We wish to establish relationships with providers who are based in each of the countries in which RI operates or, where this is not possible, who work on a regional basis to provide support to a number of countries from a regional hub.
  2. An ‘Introductory Webinar’ by the potential provider for RI staff (not more than 1-2 hours in length) to explain who they are, how they will work with employees, what kind of counselling support they can offer and so on, in order to build rapport with the team, even if at a distance, and to gain their trust.  In countries where there are very large numbers of staff, the webinar may need to be run twice.
  3. About Relief International: Relief International specializes in relief and development programs that benefit people in acute distress. A registered non-profit in the US, UK, France and Belgium, our work targets those fragile countries or communities that suffer from recurrent man-made or natural crises that impede human development. The people we serve live in seventeen countries across the Middle East, Africa, and Asia where the debilitating effects of political instability, forced displacement, and natural disasters are pervasive. Often, RI is the only organization providing healthcare, education, logistics, energy, capacity building, economic development, sanitation, and many other forms of assistance to these highly vulnerable communities.

    Required Service: "RI - Lebanon office" intends to sign a framework agreement with a selected one or more therapists to provide "psychosocial support", as per the attached Scope of Work and Requirements.

  4. An on-call service to provide remote crisis counselling for local national staff who have suffered some personal trauma or challenge, whether this is related to their home life or working life. We would expect counselling sessions to be standard, based on clinical need
  5. Group sessions done on the field or at the program location. The purpose would be to provide relevant interventions such as psychological team debriefings, resilience and recovery workshops and so on to deliver group support (e.g. resilience building; or coaching on working in high stress environments)
  6. Group sessions done remotely. The purpose would be to provide relevant interventions such as psychological team debriefings, resilience and recovery workshops and so on to deliver group support (e.g. resilience building; or coaching on working in high stress environments)
