My name is Jordan, and I specialize in mental health education for the first responder community. I earned my Master of Social Work from UNC Pembroke and am currently completing a Master of Science in Criminal Justice at East Carolina University.

My professional background includes working in inpatient psychiatric care, mobile crisis teams, and individual therapy. These roles and my education have given me a firsthand look at how intense crises and high-stress jobs impact individuals and their families. I use this experience to provide clear, practical information on the specific mental health challenges that first responders face every day.

This website is strictly an educational resource. My goal is to share knowledge about trauma, stress, and resilience to help you navigate the demands of your career. While my clinical background informs everything I share here, this site does not provide therapy or crisis intervention. It is designed to be a professional knowledge base to help you stay informed and resilient.
