Happy 4th Anniversary to Coriander Living Collective!
Happy 4th Anniversary to Coriander Living Collective (CLC)! It has proven to be another interesting year in honoring limits, learning to flow with rather than resist change, and practicing patience for the next right thing to manifest. To our clients, friends, family, and colleagues, thank you for your continued support and trust.
Bibliotherapy: Emotional Survival for Law Enforcement by Kevin M. Gilmartin
The last few years have been challenging for law enforcement agencies and officers (LEOs) across our country. LEOs deal with the “maddest, baddest, and saddest” constituents in society. LEOs have a high stress, high stakes job. They are trained and prepared for survival on the streets, but are given little if any training on emotional survival in this high risk role. The current national rates of suicide for LEOs are 2x that of the general population. In his book, Emotional Survival for Law Enforcement: A Guide for Officers and Their Families, police psychologist, Kevin M. Gilmartin states we need to “stop breaking cops.” His book encourages LEOs and their families to make self-directed decisions on how life can function and strategy implementation to insure emotional survival.
Psychotherapy & Support for Law Enforcement, First Responders, & Military Personnel & Families
As I reflect back, it is not surprising to me that I have a history of studying and working within and around the criminal justice system in different capacities. I am called to pursue new avenues and ways of supporting local law enforcement and first responders! This is a population that I believe deeply deserves and needs additional support. If you or a loved one is connected to these populations just reach out! Coriander Living Collective is open to individual teenage and adult clients for individual talk and trauma therapy, training, consultation, supervision, and other creative offerings of support!
