Show Notes:
Thanks so much to T.C. Randall, ER Nurse of 14 years and author of The View From The Wrong Side of The Day (Buy his book, it’s great!), as well as Jennifer Pound, recently retired RCMP Staff Sgt. and face of the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) in Vancouver, and creator of the blog Fuel For First Responders.
We broke this conversation about their experiences navigating therapy with an occupational stress injury into two parts. This week we talk about finding the right fit with a therapist and working to recover.
Go back to the previous episode to hear our talk about the difficulties navigating the system and accessing support that fit.
