Brantley Ranelle, a 43-year-old with over two decades in the fire and EMS service, has a wealth of experience and dedication. He earned his bachelor’s degree from the University of Texas at Arlington, with a minor in psychology. The premature birth of his first son, who has an extensive health history, led to Brantley’s diagnosis of PTSD, depression, and anxiety. In 2013, he realized his struggles were affecting his family life and sought help from a psychiatrist. Since then, he has continued therapy, gaining a deep understanding of mental health and the feelings of hopelessness. Despite these challenges, Brantley remains committed to his career and family, embodying resilience and the importance of seeking help.
