Supports for Fire & Rescue
Protecting those who protect others
​​
Firefighters and emergency response professionals face unique occupational stressors - exposure to critical incidents, trauma, high-risk situations, and extended periods of alertness.
Whether responding to structure fires, motor vehicle accidents, or natural disasters, the emotional and physical toll of this work can accumulate over time.
​
Prolonged exposure to danger, heat, loss, and high-stakes decision-making can lead to cumulative trauma, hypervigilance, burnout, anxiety, or difficulty switching off after duty.
Alevia Health provides confidential, trauma-informed counselling and psychological support designed specifically for Fire & Rescue personnel.
​
Common challenges we support:
-
Exposure to traumatic events, fatalities, and critical incidents

Adjustment following long-term deployment or station recall
