Burn #16 Eric Stephenson

from Free Burn 2023 Hosted by Matt Ballard

Ending 2023 with a great interview!!! On this episode I sit down with Eric Stephenson! He is the Executive Director of the First Responders Peer Support Network located on the coast of North Carolina. Eric is a 30-year veteran of the fire service. He has worked as a firefighter, paramedic, Lieutenant and recently retired as a shift Captain. Eric has a strong passion for first responder mental health and is an advocate on this platform as he is a PTSD survivor himself. Eric and his wife Debra, who is also retired from Emergency Services have faced many challenges along their journey of recovery together in relation to Eric's PTSD, anxiety, depression and suicidal ideations. This prompted them to put a program together titled "Success On The Home Front" which addresses the struggles first responders and significant others may face together. Eric credits his progress in recovery to several things. First his wife, peer support and mental health counseling and treatment. https://www.frpsn.org/
