S5 Ep14 On Coming Home with Dr. Art Finch

Dr. Dan Dworkis and Dr. Art Finch, MCTI's Director of Psychology, discuss the complexities of reintegrating into family life after high-stress, mission-critical work. They introduce 'On Coming Home,' a workbook designed to help both operators and their families navigate the reintegration process. The conversation highlights the importance of patience, gratitude, and understanding that coming home is a process, not an event.
