Join Jake Wiskerchen for his talk on Understanding Gun Culture, Mental Health, and Ethics at UNR School of Medicine’s TriplePlay 2021 event.
Why are we seeing so many polarizing arguments and debates, particularly online? In this video, Jake Wiskerchen attempts to answer that question through the lens of the five ethical principles: autonomy, justice, non-maleficence, beneficence, and fidelity.
Today, we're talking about emotional functioning! Understanding emotions can help you move through life with intention and compassion for yourself and others. This is the first of our new series on emotional functioning.
Times are tough for everyone right now but they WILL pass. Jake offers his thoughts and some encouragement in a new video.
Jake Wiskerchen takes a step back to reflect on 2020 and urges you to think about the good that's come out of this year instead of focusing on the bad. Everyone's experiences are different, and by no means should you compare yours to somebody else's. But we can reframe our experiences to move through any emotions we're feeling. Think of it like, "This experience sucked... AND I learned something from it."
In today's episode, we welcome Brittany Phillips. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor. She walks alongside individuals as they navigate this journey called life. Her approach in therapy is to create a safe space and empower each client as they explore and gain insight into their emotions, thoughts, and relational patterns.
We are so grateful to welcome Jessica Harris, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor trained in Brainspotting and Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR) therapies. She specializes in working with high-level professionals who struggle with reproductive issues, experience anxiety related to navigating work-life integration, and trauma.
Jake Wiskerchen talks about how we’ve lost our ability to tolerate distress. It’s rare that we collectively have to endure a crisis for an extended length of time, but we’re currently facing many — the raging wildfires and hazardous air quality across the entire west coast, a global pandemic that has killed over 195k Americans alone, and the constant decision fatigue and hypervigilance that comes along with these.
In the spring of 2019, Zephyr Wellness and Walk the Talk America partnered together in order to bridge the gap between guns and mental health. Walk the Talk America aims to bring awareness to firearm suicides, firearm safety to those who own firearms, and a demystification of the counseling process.
