First Responders, Active-Duty Military, and Veterans
As a previous law enforcement officer in Washington, DC., Erin understands the challenges and mental health symptoms that first responders may experience related to on-the-job stressors and traumas, and how that might impact personal relationships with others. She understands the hesitancy and difficulty in seeking mental health treatment due to fears of how it may impact career status or other relationships.
