Nick Halmasy spent a decade in the Fire Service. He spent the majority of that time as a Fire Instructor and sat on various committees within the fire service. He has completed a Master’s of Arts in Counselling and is a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying).
After the Call is the culmination of his passion for First Responders and Mental Health Awareness. This site is not dedicated solely to the conversation of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder! Nick understands that the level of stress and pressure exercises itself in various ways within the people, and their families, that goes beyond a single diagnosis.
Nick brings to the field not just experience as a First Responder, but also as a clinical practitioner with experience in a wide range of clinical settings including: crisis settings, hospital settings, and within the addiction sector. Nick also runs a private therapy practice for First Responders in Peterborough and Bowmanville.
Nick has written a book to help First Responders and their families begin conversations about mental wellness. Nick has presented extensively on the topic of First Responder Mental Wellness. With a deep understanding that PTSD is not the only mental struggle that will affect the First Responder, Nick tries to counter this idea. While PTSD certainly destroys First Responders and their families, there is a long list of other mental health struggles that can destroy First Responders first.
Nick is published in Utah Valley State University’s Straight Tip Magazine, International Firefighter, Firefighting in Canada, Fire Chief, and Uniform Stories. Nick continues to write and presents on the topic of First Responder Mental Wellness.
