Welcome to Adaptable | Behavior Explained! In this video, we explore the critical topic of mental health among first responders. Firefighters, police officers, paramedics, and other emergency personnel face unique challenges and stressors in their line of duty. The nature of their work often involves high-pressure situations, trauma exposure, and the responsibility of saving lives. These experiences can take a toll on their mental well-being.
Join us as we delve into the importance of mental health support for these everyday heroes. We'll discuss common mental health issues faced by first responders, such as PTSD, anxiety, depression, and burnout. We'll also highlight the importance of seeking help, available resources, and practical strategies for maintaining mental wellness.
Whether you're a first responder, a family member, or someone interested in the topic, this video offers valuable insights and guidance on prioritizing mental health. Remember, taking care of yourself is as crucial as taking care of others.

I'm Kelly O'Horo, Attachment based EMDR Therapist, EMDRIA Consultant, and Advanced Trainer. I'm a mom of 5, Nonna of 5, wife, and a healer. I have the honor of spending my workdays walking along side people while they brave their healing journeys. I try to live with the generous assumption that we're all doing the best we can with what we know. Therapists are teachers for the "life stuff" and "emotional vocabulary" that may not have been learned due to gaps in our care givers capabilities. In the last 15 years I've learned that people are freaking amazing, resilient, and inspiring. Most importantly, we are hardwired for connection and for healing!
I hope to bring an authentic, compassionate, and unpolished approach while we explore a variety of topics such as parenting, marriage, relationships, dating, trauma, attachment, adoption, depression, addiction, anxiety, and love! There's a why for all behaviors and an explanation that makes perfect sense as emotion is at the root of it all.
