Critical Incident Stress Co-Founder edit

• In the late 1980s, together with Jeffrey T. Mitchell, PhD, Everly founded the International Critical Incident Stress Foundation (ICISF), an education and training organization dedicated to reducing the adverse impact of trauma and burnout within the emergency services professions worldwide. [3] • In 1997, ICISF was admitted to the United Nations as a non-governmental organization under the auspices of the Economic and Social Council, one of the six principle organs of the United Nations. [4] • Continued contributions to the field were exemplified at the International Conference on Fostering Human Resilience[5]

US University Affiliations edit 

From 1988 to 1992, Everly served as Chief Psychologist and Director of Behavioral Medicine at the Johns Hopkins Homewood Hospital Center in Baltimore. Academic posts at Loyola University Maryland, [6]

The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, and The Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health are currently held by Everly. [7]


US Government Senior Consultant edit

  • •As a consultant he was a member of the CDC Mental Health Collaboration Committee (having chaired the mental health competency development sub-committee), the Infrastructure Expert Team within the US Department of Homeland Security, the Peer Support Team for the US Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, and the NVOAD Emotional and Spiritual Care Committee.

International Faculty Appointments edit

  • •He has held honorary or visiting professorships at the University of Hong Kong, Universidad de Flores (Argentina), and Universidad de Weiner (Peru).

Publication Snapshot edit

  • A prolific writer, Everly co-authored over 20 textbooks. With Daniel Girdano, he authored Controlling Stress and Tension (Prentice-Hall), perhaps the first college stress management textbook in 1977. In 1989, he authored A Clinical Guide to the Treatment of the Human Stress Response (Plenum), the first text to integrate the psychophysiology of stress with specific treatment guidelines. [8] Both of these seminal texts are still in print. Writing with Jeffrey T. Mitchell, Everly wrote Critical Incident Stress Management, the first textbook on a comprehensive systems' approach to psychological crisis intervention. His 2007 book Pastoral Crisis Intervention paved the way for the integration of clergy into disaster mental health response. His 2008 book The Resilient Child[9] won ForeWord Magazine's Gold Medal for Book of the Year in Parenting.
  • • His work with US Navy SEALs and other highly resilient people culminated in his 2015 book Stronger (AMACOM). While on faculty at the Johns Hopkins' Center for Public Health Preparedness, Everly developed the Johns Hopkins' RAPID model of psychological first aid, one of the world's first evidence-based psychological first aid models. His book Psychological First Aid: The Johns Hopkins Model, is published by the Johns Hopkins Press.[10]

Complete Publications[11] edit

Throughout his career Everly coined several terms that have been accepted into the lexicon of the fields of psychological crisis intervention and disaster mental health. "Pastoral Crisis Intervention" (2000) in a effort to foster interest and training in crisis intervention amongst the clergy. "Psychotraumatology" in an effort to more specifically denote the study of psychological trauma as opposed to the commonly used term "traumatology" which refers to the study of wounds. Psychological Body Armor (TM) (2007)
