Therapy for Police
You’ve been told that it’s just part of the job, to “suck it up” and move on. So, you put your head down and go to your next call until the shift is over. You don’t talk about how hard it is to see a traumatic event and then move onto finding patience to deal with some of our most vulnerable members of our community. You go home and find yourself using unhealthy ways to cope with your day, aimlessly scrolling on your phone, procrastinating your to-do list because you cannot find the energy or motivation. Mood swings are happening more often, and anxiety is popping up at times it never did before leaving you with more regret and remorse.
Therapy can help you navigate the impact your career in law enforcement is having on various other aspects of your life including your relationships with loved ones. With therapy, you can expect to feel more confident, present and in control of your thoughts and emotions so that you can more easily deal with life’s unexpected ups and downs.
