POLICE OFFICERS & FIRST RESPONDERS
I have a limited clinical practice specializing in Posttraumatic Stress Injury (PTSI),TRAUMA and other issues related to law enforcement personnel, fireman, and other emergency service personnel and their families. These civil service positions place unique demands on people and they require counselors with equally specialized training, knowledge and experience. Limited in time and scope, I am only able to take on a few patients. If I am unable to accept a new patient for some reason I will make every effort to help get the patient connected with another counselor.
Why do I use posttraumatic stress injury (PTSI) instead of the more popular posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD)? Because experts in the field recognize the condition is NOT a life-long disorder like we find with personality but rather an injury caused by extraordinary environmental experiences that can be treated.
