May we mobilize mental health care efforts to attend to the needs of these trauma survivors, and may we co-create a society in which we mutually value peace, safety, and community belonging for all, such that the drive to engage in such violence is diminished.

Fire service psychologists play a key role in facilitating operational success and preventative health care for our firefighters and paramedics. I look forward to learning from the leaders of the field this Friday at #FSPA2021!

As a psychology trainee, I work to improve the mental health of the individuals I serve and the overall well-being of the systems of which they are a part. In fire service psychology, that means preventative mental health care and early intervention after critical incidents.

A shout out to our women in the fire service! We know that sex and gender can impact your workplace environment and the stressors you navigate every day. We see you and thank you for all that you do to protect the public safety.
