Our Work Together
The constant exposure to high-stakes situations and the need to remain composed under pressure can take a toll on our sense of resiliency and detract from our quality of life and relationships. My goal is to provide a safe, confidential, and understanding space where first responders can address the mental and emotional challenges that are facing them on the job and in their personal lives.
In our work we might aim to:
Improve emotional regulation
Address relational concerns
Process traumatic experiences
Build on your existing resilience
