    Military Anxiety: From Crippling Dread to Helping Others Heal

    Former Royal Navy Lieutenant Commander Jamie Leaper shares his powerful journey from military service to becoming a therapist - and why being part of the 20% of male counsellors is changing how men engage with mental health. In this honest conversation, Jamie discusses: • The reality of military-to-civilian transition anxiety • Why the "veteran" label can be harmful • How injury recovery challenged his perspective on heroism • Why men are finally engaging with therapy • The importance of authentic, unapologetic therapeutic relationships Jamie discuss’s the challenges of transitioning from military life to civilian life, the impact of personal injury on their identity, and the importance of empathy in therapeutic relationships, and also critiques the hero narrative often associated with recovery, emphasising that not every story is a heroic one and that many individuals struggle with their own unique challenges. Ultimately, they advocate for understanding and supporting those who may not fit the traditional hero mold. Takeaways Anxiety can be a crippling experience that affects daily life. Transitioning from military to civilian life can be challenging and identity-shifting. Counselling can be a powerful way to help others navigate their struggles. Personal injury can lead to a reevaluation of one's identity and capabilities. The hero narrative can create unrealistic expectations for recovery. Empathy is crucial in building therapeutic relationships. Not every recovery story is a heroic one; many are mundane yet significant. Understanding one's own anxiety can enhance the ability to help others. The importance of psychoeducation in therapy cannot be overstated. It's essential to meet clients where they are, without judgment.
