Counseling for First Responders

First responders are the front line of defense when it comes to health, safety, rescue, and response. Responders experience difficult, and demanding situations constantly throughout their day, often not being provided the space, time, or environment to process the hardships of their job. The question that is often asked is who takes care of first responders and their families when they need help?

As a first responder you are looking for help from people that understand your profession and can provide you and your family immediate help. It can be difficult to seek out help as a first responder due to the stress, stigma, and fear that your experiences will not be understood. When first responders seek out counseling, they need the support of clinicians who understand the culture, schedule, and overall demands of an unpredictable and taxing job.

Here at Snowline Counseling we are certified as first responder counselor and have specific training in working with first responders. We strive to minimize both emotional and physical hurdles you might experience, so that you can receive the help that you deserve. We provide services to first responders from all disciplines including but not limited to: Police, Firefighters, Health Care Professionals, Emergency Medical Services, Alpine Rescue, Ski Patrol, and National Park Services. At Snowline Counseling we approach each client with empathy, understanding and openness. We genuinely want to help you process events that you have seen, heard, or taken part in, to help you work through them and come out stronger. You no longer are alone with your thoughts and worried about how these feelings might be affecting your job, family, and personal well-being.
