I always take work home with me.
My work keeps me away from my family.
I’m always tired.
I can’t forget the things I have seen.
I feel like my job is my identity.
Being a first responder comes with demands and challenges that no one, other than fellow first responders, can comprehend. The familial challenges are also things that can be difficult to explain and understand. The long shifts, missed family gatherings, and traumatic experiences can create an abundance of emotions.
Here at Momentum, we have clinicians who know what it is like to be a first responder, as well as be a family member to a first responder. We are dedicated to helping those who help our community.
Together, we can work with you and your family on:
Communicating more effectively
Processing past trauma
Anxiety
Panic attacks
Dissociation
Depression
Creating a schedule
Difficulty sleeping and insomnia
Feelings of irritability
Becoming more present
