Deborah is the wife of ret. New York State Trooper, who after struggling with symptoms took years to finally be diagnosed with PTSD. Deborah has been through the gauntlet of being the spouse of a first responder with PTSD. After the diagnosis came and healing began, Deborah used her writing and producing skills to create the award winning documentary film, Code 9: Officer Needs Assistance. This film tells the stories of police officers and their journeys through PTSD. She is currently working to produce another film called Monochrome, about bridging back the trust between the community and the police. Her story is powerful, honest, and loving. It was an honor for me to talk to her and I think you will enjoy this show!
