Relentless Courage: Winning the Battle Against Frontline Trauma

More about the book

RELENTLESS COURAGE: Winning the Battle Against Frontline Trauma offers an eye-opening portrayal of the human impact of trauma within the law enforcement and first responder community. Retired police Sergeant Michael Sugrue, a nationally known advocate for first responder wellness, and Shauna 'Doc' Springer, a licensed psychologist, best-selling author, and nationally respected expert on trauma, team up to share Michael's story of trauma and healing. In telling Michael's account, Doc Springer bases her writing on a year of intimate interviews with Michael, as well as primary sources confirming what he shares. At the conclusion of each chapter, she provides a wealth of epiphany-producing insights, based on her uniquely perceptive abilities. Through his vulnerability and courage, Michael smashes the stigma for his fellow first responders and, together, they share critical information to save lives and help others heal from their trauma. At the end of the book, Michael and Doc Springer describe several resources for healing, and point readers to where they can access these potentially life-saving services.
