Clinical Psychologist Chris Frueh, PhD, Talks Operator Syndrome and His Work with Special Forces Veterans

from Ballast Book Launch · host Ballast Media Group

Chris Frueh, PhD, speaks with Ballast Books CEO Andy Symonds about his book Operator Syndrome, which outlines his decades of experience treating veterans and studying the impact that years of war have on them and their loved ones. Dr. Frueh guides readers through the harrowing terrain of operator syndrome. He provides a roadmap to understand its multifaceted origins and complex effects on every biological system in the body—as well as the social systems of family, work, and the indifferent society these warriors return to. Frueh shines a bright and empathic light on the silent struggles of a community with a “never quit” mindset. Most importantly, he provides real solutions, lifestyle adaptations, and step-by-step treatment strategies that have worked for hundreds of operators, saving lives and giving hope to families.
