"Cop Doc's Guide to Public Safety Complex Trauma Syndrome" is written in response to the need for an advanced, specialized guide for clinicians to operationally define, understand, and responsibly treat complex post-traumatic stress and grief syndromes in the context of the unique varieties of police personality styles. The book continues where Rudofossi's first book, "Working with Traumatized Police Officer Patients", left off. Theory is wed to practice and practice to effective interventions with police officer-patients. The 'how' and 'why' of a clinician's approach is made highly effective by understanding the distinct personality styles of officer-patients. Rudofossi's theoretical approach segues into difficult examples that highlight each officer-patient's eco-ethological field experience of loss in trauma, with a focus on enhancing resilience and motivation to - otherwise left disenfranchised. Thus, this original work expands the ecological-ethological existential analysis of complex PTSD into the context of personality styles, with an emphasis on resilience - without ignoring the pathological aspects of loss that often envelop officer-patient trauma syndromes.

An insider perspective from a 'cop doc on the job,' this book is the first of its kind written in response to a need for a specialized guide for clinicians that operationally defines and responsibly treats what Dan Rudofossi terms Police and Public Safety Complex PTSD. In reading this book, you are led through an understanding of how to work with police officers who experience cumulative loss in trauma. "Doc Dan" initiates you into an original cultural competence of how and why his theory works in practice. You will leave the journey with a practical sense of how the ecological context and ethological motivation are part of the psychological presentation of almost all officers suffering from complex trauma and loss.This guide is crucial reading, original in its breadth and scope of perspective on how to intervene with the traumatized officer. Toward that end, Rudofossi presents his Eco-Ethological Existential Analysis of Police and Public Safety Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Emotive, affective, cognitive, behavioral, and existential ranges of expression of trauma are vast, diverse, and often intense in police officers. This book delivers applied theory with clinical examples, including practical interventions for the clinician and handouts for the officer-patient. The clinician will be assisted in encountering officers' existential suffering from the edge of despair to the precipice of meaning. The guide is at once stimulating, exciting, and very serious in its potential for clinical interventions.

ABOUT THE BOOK A Cop Doc's Guide to Understanding Terrorism as Human Evil: Healing from Complex Trauma Syndromes for Military, Police, and Public Safety Officers and Their Families is a groundbreaking guide that shatters the myth that military, police, and public safety officers are automatons that follow orders blindly. The title captures the essence of the text. It offers a self-help guide in two ways. First, it describes the terror that engulfs the most brave, courageous, and often humane officer caught in a tragic moment: a tragic moment with very tough choices to make, on the border between life and death. Secondly, the guide addresses the impact of Media, academia, and even social circles that could support officers and their families, “if only” the reality were known outside the inner circles but are so politicized that they are not. The reality of decisions that are made in microseconds are usually presented through the lenses of 'distortions': Distortions that are either idealizing or attacking incredible acts of heroism. The result is often a crumbling of the real-deal soul of the individual officer. Dr. Dan shows how to pull out the hidden courage, commitment, empathy, and wisdom intuitively from the frontline warriors who are directly at war with terrorism.Credibility is everything in police, public safety, and military culture. This guide is endorsed by the practitioners and field combat warriors who are neither pathologizing nor offering a feel-good approach, but know who is speaking the real deal as it truly is! The Foreword is written by national hero and Pulitzer Prize nominee Lt. Col. David Grossman; the Preface is by world hero and author, leader of Mission “Black Hawk Down,” Col. Daniel McKnight. This is a survivors' guide to the war on terrorism. Cop Doc Denny and Cop Doc Antoon Leenars, Captain Sosnowik of NYPD, and DEA Intelligence Specialist Barr Soltis are some of those who have read the theory and treatment developed by Dr. Rudofossi and strongly support and use it in their niches of counter-terrorism, from education to the battlefields, leadership seminars, and the warm havens of Cop Doc and Military Doc Clinics. Intended Audience: Military, police, public safety, and first responders and their families; students of criminal justice, law, psychology, and psychiatry; anyone interested in learning about how to survive, identify, and resolve to overcome terrorism in the United States and abroad.

New York Police Department "cop doc" Dr. Dan Rudofossi delves into what it meant to live as a deep-cover operative through narratives with Joe Pistone, the FBI agent who spent six years living as Donnie Brasco as a member of the Bonanno crime family. When Operation Donnie Brasco abruptly closed, it was the longest and most successful infiltration of a Mafia family. Dr. Rudofossi underscores Pistone’s genius to survive daily challenges of infiltration by using innovations in the ecological niches of Mafia violence. Donnie Brasco’s "mental toughness," resilience, and ingenuity are understood through Rudofossi’s signature Eco-Ethological Existential Analysis. Mapping out why and how trauma shaped functional dissociation as unconscious adaptation, the author’s experience as a police psychologist—that is, a "cop doc"—helps decode the bigger picture of conflict, resolution, and compromise in the disparate worlds of policing and organized crime. This unique look at the costs and successes of tracking, infiltrating, arresting, and convicting those involved in organized crime is a groundbreaking read for law enforcement personnel, criminal justice, homeland security, law students, police psychologists, as well as anyone fascinated by the world of organized crime.
