Episode description

The Fourth of July can be challenging for some of our neighbors, specifically for veterans who might have PTSD. Many veterans report feeling blindsided by unexpected fireworks, which can shatter their sense of safety and control. Some veterans even seek out remote locations to avoid the holiday, but may still encounter fireworks. On Ask the Expert, Dr. LaKeita Carter joined us. She is a licensed psychologist and shares with us how we can celebrate Independence Day respectfully around veterans with PTSD.
