A Workshop for Police & RCMP Partners
Learn why shutdown happens
and how to reconnect.
From Distance to Connection:
A Workshop for Police & RCMP Partners
Next live date: Wednesday November 19 2025 | 6:30–7:30 PM PST
When the person you love shuts down, it’s not rejection — it’s protection.
Policing trains emotional control and compartmentalization. At home, those same skills can make partners feel distant, unseen, or shut out.
This live, 60-minute workshop helps spouses and partners of police and RCMP members understand why shutdown happens — and how to reconnect without pressure or conflict.
You’ll learn:
- The nervous-system reason for emotional shutdown (it’s not personal)
- The difference between needing space and withdrawing
- The pursuer/withdrawer loop and how to step out of it
- Simple tools that actually work in real life:
-
-
- The Switch — questions that invite connection
- The Two-Sentence Approach — what to say when they go quiet
- The Connection Menu — small daily choices that rebuild closeness
-
Includes: Replay recording, downloadable worksheet, and printable scripts.
Length: 60 minutes
Price: $47 CAD for the first 10 seats, then $67 CAD

Who Is The Police Doc?
Meet the Psychologist Who’s Helped Hundreds of Police Families
I’m Dr. Catherine Currell — a licensed psychologist, a listener, and a quiet fighter for the women behind the badge.
Over the past decade, I’ve worked with officers and their families through trauma, tension, and everything in between. The late-night phone calls. The emotional shutdowns. The feeling of being invisible — or overwhelmed.
That’s why I created The Police Doc — a space just for spouses. Not clinical. Not cold. Just real-world support, tools, and community… from someone who understands the culture and the cost.
✔️ Licensed R.Psych with 10+ years in trauma,
couples, and police mental health
✔️ Experience working with RCMP and municipal officers
✔️ Culturally competent, non-clinical approach for real-world stress
✔️ Advocate for both officers and their families
