Coping as a Fire Fighter with Brent Schreiber

In this episode, Dr. Hildebrand hosted recently retired firefighter, Brent Schreiber, in a discussion of his experiences in the field for the past 26 years. He discusses the sacred duty that he's had over the years. He talks about how coping has evolved for both himself and other firefighters, including the opportunity to debrief difficult calls and express one's experiences. Schreiber delves into some of the most difficult aspects of being a firefighter and several of his "close calls," including one that led him to carefully consider his children and retirement. He sought counseling to assist with these more harrowing experiences and has become an advocate to both firefighters, and people in general, to reach out to others when they need support.
