Feeling Stressed?
Most first responders wait too long before they seek help. With early intervention PTSD and acute stress are preventable. With the right help, symptoms can be reduced or even eliminated. We specialize in working with first responders who need support after experiencing a recent traumatic event or those trying to cope with the accumulation of stress that comes with being a first responder. Allowing stress to pile up can interfere with your ability to enjoy life. Our goal is to provide effective, efficient services in a safe and confidential environment, so you can get back to living a healthy life as quickly as possible.
MAYBE, You just want to vent without judgement…
You want to learn how to “let go” of the things that are bothering you…
You are looking for ideas on how to de-stress and cope more effectively.
First Responders Play an Important Role in Our Society
When problems arise, you are the one called to clean up the mess. You spend so much of your time focused on helping others that it becomes easy to forget your own needs in the process. Whether you’re putting on the uniform for the first time or have been wearing it for 30 years, one thing remains the same. That it takes a lot to admit that things are not okay. As a first responder, family time is just not the same as everyone else. When you finish your shift, you’d choose staying home over going out any day. No one understands why you don’t want to “socialize” or why you would prefer to keep to yourself and enjoy some silence over a family event. No one understands why just making a call to the bank feels like a task or why at a restaurant you need to watch the door. They don’t understand unless they’ve been there. We get it. And it’s not until you find a therapist that gets it, that your relationships will start to change. We have a team of professionals that only work with first responders and that will make the difference in your results.
