Destiny Morris is a licensed marriage and family therapist working remotely in CA.  She specializes in trauma working with first responders & their spouses. She is trained in EMDR and taking new clients virtually.  

In our conversation, we talk about her life’s focus and her insight with first responders in her family. 

We do a deep dive into topics including:

Considerations for first responder families and kids, the impact of the job on kids, communicating through that…

Sleep: stress dreams, sleep hacks, how chronic stress and relationship issues can develop from poor sleep…

The need to build and healthy coping and decompression mechanisms, and how to communicate those needs with partner/family…

Relationship issues: communication, tips, infidelity, risk-seeking behaviors, ED…

And what to do about all of it!  These are extremely meaningful, valuable topics and the type of conversations we need to keep hammering to normalize support and wisdom sharing for our first responder culture!!!
