Host Julie Clarke speaks with registered psychotherapist and longtime Ontario paramedic Deb Cooper about finding appropriate mental-health support as a trauma-exposed professional.Their definition reaches beyond first responders. Paramedics, police officers, firefighters, military personnel, healthcare workers, mental-health clinicians, personal support workers, and early childhood educators can all encounter trauma as an expected part of their work. Julie and Deb discuss why those professionals need clinicians who understand both trauma and the occupational culture surrounding it.The conversation explores the differences among mental-health providers in Ontario, the limits of labels such as “trauma-informed,” and practical ways to evaluate a prospective therapist. It also gives listeners permission to ask questions, seek referrals, try several sessions, name problems in the therapeutic relationship, set limits on what they are ready to discuss, and leave when serious red flags appear.At its heart, this episode is about agency: therapy exists for the client. A thoughtful therapist respects boundaries, welcomes honest feedback, repairs ruptures, and helps clients build the ability to move forward without them.

This week, the boys are brimming with DINOSAUR ENERGY, which was introduced to the sitterverse by a new character named Deb Cooper, who has more in common with The Golden Bear's depiction of the Joker in 1989's The Batman than anyone has any right to. Also, Watson adopts a seeing-eye dong, Ben Hobart returns, Jack hurts his hand, and there's a lot of fretting over acute angle-closure glaucoma, because where we're going… we won't need eyes.

Wednesday August 30, 2017 Host/producer Maria Vasquez Boyd talks with Deb Cooper founder & Director Arts & AGEing KC, photograper Nicolas Dhervillers, and Executive Director Janet Simpson & Assistant Director Marissa Starke of the Kansas City Artists Coalition. Nicolas Dhervillers - Rétrospective Works” – Renowned French photographer exhibits for the first time in Kansas City Nicolas Dhervillers' (b. 1981) photographic works span from small still lives to monumental landscapes. In many of his images, theatre, cinema, painting and photography coalesce. Dhervillers' scenes often pay homage to the great artists of the past, including Nicolas Poussin and Gustave Courbet. Other works use photographic processing to take the viewer into a fictional space outside of time. His landscape photography is subjected to a digital process adapted from the cinematic “day for night” technique, lending an eerie look to pictures taken in broad daylight. Archival figures are then placed within the landscapes and washed with unnatural digital light. Dhervillers has participated in Paris Photo and festival Mono, a documenta 13 event. His works can be found in private collections and museums around the world. This retrospective marks Dhervillers' first exhibition in the United States. Locations: Sherry Leedy Gallery, 2004 Baltimore Ave, Kansas City,…
