Meet our Director of Mental Health Resources: Greg Podolak (LCSW)
"Since mid-2023, I’ve spearheaded the Law Enforcement Wellness Initiative, a program primarily
focused on supporting patrol officers. Through regular ride-alongs, I build trust by experiencing their
work firsthand, which allows me to provide real-time or follow-up support after critical incidents. I
currently work closely with the First Precinct of the Richmond Police Department and have
established partnerships with several other agencies.
I specialize in supporting First Responders, along with their spouses and families, by creating a
space where their unique experiences are truly understood and honored. With a background in public
safety myself, I’m able to connect on a deeper level and offer care that’s both meaningful and
effective. Drawing from my own personal challenges, I strive to break the stigma around
therapy—helping people see it as a safe, supportive journey toward healing rather than something to
fear.
Coming from a law enforcement family, combined with clinical experience at the Richmond
Ambulance Authority and work with nonprofits dedicated to First Responders, I bring a rich blend of
personal and professional insight to my practice. Currently, I offer individual therapy, EMDR, and
group sessions exclusively for First Responders."
