Mission:

To promote the emotional and psychological health of our peers and public safety family.

Vision:

The Peer Support Team will engage as an understanding peer, focused on preserving dignity through one-on-one confidential communication and support to peers and their families. Peer Support members will offer emotional assistance listening with a nonjudgmental ear and provide direction to resources.

​

The following is a list of the Reno Fire Department Peer Support Team’s vetted clinicians within our community. Each clinician is at least Master’s Level counselor who works with clients who have experienced trauma, including emergency responders. To the extent possible, we are only listing clinicians who accept insurances offered to responders in our area. We would like this list to be a “living list”. If you have a clinician you would like to the vetting team look into adding to this list, please contact Erin Chapel via email at Erin.Chapel@gmail.com. We also recognize that there are numerous alternatives to traditional therapy that might be significantly helpful.
