Therapy That Understands the Pressures of Regional Fire Service
As a Sacramento Metropolitan Fire District firefighter, you handle:
✅ Major structure fires, wildland fires, rescues, and high-stakes emergencies
✅ Long, unpredictable 24-hour shifts and constant readiness
✅ Frequent exposure to trauma, severe injury, and human tragedy
✅ The demand to stay calm, sharp, and emotionally strong under relentless stress
Over time, this workload can lead to:
Emotional exhaustion or burnout
Hypervigilance, anxiety, or irritability
Difficulty sleeping, relaxing, or staying connected with family
Wondering how long you can keep going without breaking
You don’t have to face this alone. Private therapy with a firefighter-specialized therapist can help you process trauma, rebuild resilience, and protect your mental health — confidentially and without department involvement.
