Life on the front line is very stressful and comes with a variety of emotions. I’ve spent over 16 years in the emergency services including over 10 years on the front line, so I understand. It’s also how I got into cognitive behaviour therapy, because it was partly these very situations that led me into recieveing therapy myself.
