Event Description
Presented by Cyndi Doyle
First responders and departments seeking to partner for mental health services for first responders require culturally competent clinicians. Learn the unique challenges of each discipline, how conditioning that keeps them safe on the job impacts them negatively, spillover that impacts connection in relationships, interventions, and resilience strategies. While counselors understand how to treat the issues, counselors must be culturally competent for these professionals and departments to trust the counseling process and treatment that will lead to healthier first responders in the field.
Learning Objectives: 

1. Participants will learn 3 culturally appropriate mental health strategies to assess first responders' mental health needs.
2. Participants will be able to describe 2 forms of classical conditioning that is used to keep first responders safe and improve their mental health.
3. Participants will learn 3 resilience strategies, techniques, and analogies to assist first responders in recovering from the job and job-related stressors.
