You carry a lot on shift. You deserve support off watch.
Confidential counseling for first responders and their families by people who understand the weight of the work
Police officers, firefighters, paramedics, military members, and their families live with a kind of stress most people never encounter. You're trained to manage it, push through it, and show up again the next shift. But managing it isn't the same as processing it.
Built for the people who run toward the call
-
We know what the job asks of you and what it costs. Off Watch Wellness was built by people who understand the weight of a career in service, and who believe that the same strength that carries you through a shift can carry you through what comes after.
-
Off Watch Wellness was created specifically for public safety personnel. Our counselors understand shift work, operational stress injuries, the culture of the job, and why asking for help can feel harder than the job itself.

Police officers, firefighters, paramedics, military members, 911 dispatchers, corrections officers, civilian support staff and their families. You live with a type of stress most people never encounter and you're trained to manage it, push through it, and show up again the next shift.

Who we’ve worked with
Your privacy is non-negotiable.
Stigma and privacy concerns are the main reasons public safety personnel don't seek help. Off Watch Wellness is designed with that in mind.
✓ No employer disclosure - We do not report to your department, union, or employer, except where required by law.
✓ No personal identifiers shared - What happens in your sessions stays between you and your counselor.
✓ No paper trail at work - Booking, sessions, and billing are handled privately. We'll help you navigate insurance.
