While first responders and military members are a highly resilient population, sending them into the worst situations where they encounter chaos and violence does not come without consequences to their physical, mental, and spiritual health. Dialed In: Trauma-Informed Care for First Responders and the Military encompasses the best practices to ensure that those who give of themselves receive the best emotional and spiritual care possible. It is not enough to thank first responders and veterans for their service; it is imperative that we provide for their wellbeing by being dialed in.
About the author
Tania was three months from completing her Master's Degree at the University of Texas when she witnessed the dramatic and violent standoff between law enforcement and the Branch Davidian Cult in Waco, Texas. At that point, she knew her calling was to work with first responders and to focus on healing these warriors from the horrors of post-traumatic stress disorder. Tania spent the first ten years of her career working in a Level Two Trauma Emergency Department on weekend nights as she built her private practice during the week. In 2002, Tania transitioned to her private practice on a full-time basis and has dedicated her entire career to working with first responders and military members. Tania assisted with the aftermath of the Oklahoma City Murrah Federal Building bombing, the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center, Hurricane Katrina, the Dallas Police shootings, and numerous other incidents. Tania is referred to as the "warrior healer" by her colleagues, and she is passionate about her work. Tania resides in Central Texas. Her loves include her family, her pets, and fitness.
