Long Beach Police Department Officers: How to Access Private Therapy With a Police-Specialized Therapist
Therapy That Understands the Complex Pressures of Long Beach Policing
As a Long Beach Police Department (LBPD) officer, you face:
✅ Urban patrols, port security, violent crime response, narcotics operations, and protest management
✅ Constant exposure to trauma, violence, and public scrutiny in one of California’s busiest port cities
✅ Long, unpredictable shifts, court obligations, and political pressures
✅ The expectation to stay sharp, composed, and emotionally resilient under nonstop stress
Over time, these pressures can lead to:
Emotional exhaustion or burnout
Hypervigilance, anxiety, or irritability
Difficulty relaxing, sleeping, or maintaining family connections
Wondering how long you can keep going without help
You don’t have to carry this alone. Private therapy with a police-specialized therapist can help you process trauma, rebuild resilience, and protect your mental health — safely, confidentially, and without department involvement.
Why Long Beach Police Officers Often Avoid Therapy
