About Mental Health Intervention and Treatment of First Responders and Emergency Workers
The stress that comes with being a first responder has been known to lead to depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and suicide. However, few clinicians are informed about these health concerns and how to adequately treat them in this population. Therefore, there is an urgent need for practitioners to understand the latest information regarding treatments that will be useful to this specific population.
"The job of first responders is to respond to traumatic events – but as humans, these events often affect them as well as civilians. Recognizing the impact of trauma upon these brave heroes, this book highlights what we know and provides a roadmap for where we need to go – reducing stigma, improving treatment, and changing culture.”

-Dr. Deborah C. Beidel, University of Central Florida, USA
This book is an essential reference source that focuses on the latest research for diagnosing and treating mental health issues experienced by emergency personnel and seeks to generate awareness and inform clinicians about the unique circumstances encountered by these professionals. While highlighting topics including anxiety disorders and stress management, this book is ideally designed for clinicians, therapists, psychologists, psychiatrists, practitioners, medical professionals, EMTs, law enforcement, fire departments, military, academicians, researchers, policymakers, and students seeking current research on psychological therapy methods regarding first responders.
