This simple breathing strategy combines the grounding sensation of touch with use of a measured pace to slow racing thoughts and regulate the body when experiencing heightened states of emotion. For young children, the mountain image can provide a helpful focal point during the exercise.

Cultural Competence Vs Cultural Humility

➡️ Cultural Competence:

Acknowledgement of the role of culture, race, ethnicity, gender, religion, language, sexual orientation, immigration status, and more in a client’s life.

Implies that a therapist can become fully knowledgeable about a culture

➡️ Cultural Humility

Cultural humility centers around the client’s lived experience and shifts power toward the client, viewing them as the expert of their own life.

Rather than applying generalized cultural facts, the therapist seeks to understand how the client experiences their culture, identity, and worldview.

Stress Management Techniques for Emergency Responders

Box Breathing
A quick and discreet method to regulate the nervous system during or after a call.
How: Inhale 4 seconds → Hold 4 seconds → Exhale 4 seconds → Hold 4 seconds. Repeat for 2–5 minutes.

After-Action Processing
Ask yourself: am I good? And if this time feels different, debrief with someone you trust or write a note in your phone of what's going through your head

Separate Work and Home
Create a procedure to keep work at work.
Examples:
1. Change clothes at the station
2. Shower as a symbolic “reset,”
3. Play your favorite music on the drive home.

Connection with Others
Talk to someone who gets it. Peer support or therapists who are familiar with your line of work can make a difference.

"We would never tell someone with a broken leg that they should stop wallowing and get it together.

We don’t consider taking medication for an ear infection something to be ashamed of.

We shouldn’t treat mental health conditions any differently."

A 4th of July Mental Health Reminder

For many, fireworks are exciting.
For others, they’re overwhelming.
Loud, sudden noises can activate the body’s fight-or-flight response, causing panic, flashbacks, or sensory overload.

How to cope:
✔ Wear noise-canceling headphones or earplugs
✔ Stay inside with curtains drawn
✔ Use white noise or calming music
✔ Practice grounding techniques (like deep breathing or holding something cold)
✔ Let others know your boundaries
