Responding to Responders [Therapy Group for First Responders]

Responding to Responders (R&R)
Facilitated by Steve Newman, MA, LPC, NCC

First responders protect and serve the public. It’s now time to serve one another.

Responding to Responders (R&R) will address real issues commonly faced within high-stress workplaces and provide the space for processing experiences that may have inflicted a post traumatic stress injury. This group is appropriate for active and retired police officers, firefighters, EMTs, and all other emergency and disaster first responders.

FREE INFORMATION SESSION

Tuesday November 19th at 11am and 7pm.

The Everyday Heroes Project

NJ Center for the Healing Arts is initiating The Everyday Heroes Project to support the efforts of our local community’s public servants that experience a high level of stress every day in the workplace. In addition to Wounded Healers, a program for mental health professionals and R&R: Responding to Responders, which is intended for emergency and disaster first responders, we will be offering programs for teachers, nurses, and allied health professionals.
