It’s estimated that 30% of first responders develop behavioral health conditions, such as depression and PTSD. Many don’t seek help due to the perceived stigma surrounding mental health treatment. They are often discouraged by false assumptions, including the notion that their colleagues may judge them. But, in a recent study, nearly two-thirds of first responders stated they had participated in or considered going to counseling. So, we’re here to reiterate: there is no weakness in protecting yourself. Your life, your family, and your career depend on you, and there’s absolutely no shame in asking for help.
We have worked closely with local agencies to provide their teams with proactive mental health care and services. If you’re struggling, it isn’t just your career on the line. So, whether you’re a police officer, a firefighter, an EMT, a dispatcher, or any other emergency personnel, our therapists aren’t just here to help you keep your job, they’re here to safeguard the entirety of your well-being.
