Counseling
At 3rd Shift Therapy LLC, we provide specialized counseling services tailored specifically for first responders, particularly those that work night shifts. Our individual counseling sessions focus on addressing the unique stressors and mental health challenges faced by those in emergency services, including PTSD, anxiety, depression, and burnout. We understand the complexities of your role because our counselor is also a first responder, offering firsthand insight into the demands and pressures of the job.
In addition to individual counseling, we offer relationship counseling to support first responders and their loved ones, friends, and colleagues. These sessions aim to improve communication, rebuild trust, and strengthen connections that may be affected by the intense nature of emergency work.
Recognizing the stigma and concerns surrounding mental health within first responder culture, our counselor provides a confidential, empathetic environment where you can openly discuss your experiences without judgment. We are committed to supporting your resilience and well-being with practical strategies and compassionate care.
