Difficulty sleeping, emotional numbness, relationship difficulties, general life stress, a sense of loss, extreme worry, guilt or shame? Do any of these sound familiar? Life is struggle but life is also joy, vibrancy, and purpose. Using person-centered, solution focused and a trauma-informed approach, I can help you get back on the path. Working as a police officer for 30 years, I learned how to help with cumulative stress, burnout and just feeling like giving up. I am not afraid of the tough stuff. I offer confidential support to First Responders as well as confidential wellness checks for officers and departmental staff.
My 17 years and still counting as an active member of the Northern Illinois Critical Incident Stress Management Team honed my skills with assisting hundreds of First Responders handle critical incidents. Even if you think talking to someone about your feelings will not be helpful, come on in and see if we can figure out some solutions together.
If you are a first responder, a struggling spouse, or a professional wondering what is next, please contact me and let’s get started!
