About this listen
Dr. Alexandra Jabr, a longtime paramedic-turned-educator and founder of Emergency Resilience, tells the story how therapy reshaped her life and purpose. She explains practical boundaries and vulnerability, why collaboration beats competition in EMS education, and how clinicians can support peers after moral injury and critical incidents. Alexandra walks through emerging options for treatment—emphasizing ketamine-assisted therapy only when delivered in a medically supervised, ethically framed model with skilled therapists and integration work—and describes immersive retreats that combine somatic modalities, group therapy, and clinician-led psychedelic-assisted sessions for women first responders. This conversation blends lived experience, clinical nuance, and concrete guidance for providers seeking mental-health resources, workplace culture change, and pathways back to joy.
