This week’s guest is Renée Bryan, a Licensed Professional Counselor and educator with a Master's in Education from Mercer University and a Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Richmont Graduate University. What makes Renée's work particularly compelling is her role as a mental health co-responder with law enforcement. This growing field many mental health professionals may not even know exists. In today's conversation, we explore what it's like to ride alongside police officers daily, responding to mental health crises in real-time. Renée takes us inside the day-to-day realities of co-response work, from gas station interventions to family crises, sharing the de-escalation strategies that work in the field and the safety protocols that protect both clinicians and community members. We discuss the challenges of navigating different professional languages between mental health and law enforcement, the current state of community mental health resources, and how this collaborative model is achieving a 98% diversion rate from incarceration to treatment.

Today I'm joined by DFCN counselor Melissa, as we take an on-air call from Adrienne from Florida who asks: How should I navigate a relationship with my mom who doesn't invest/participate in a relationship with me and my sisters and hasn't in a long time. The only time she reaches out is when she needs something. She's not emotionally available with us and if we didn't reach out, we probably wouldn't hear from her at all. I've distanced myself from people who don't meet me halfway. But can I do that with my mom? What do you do when the very person that isn't showing up in a relationship is your own mother? Does setting boundaries mean cutting her out of your life, or is there a better way? We dig deep in this on-air session and help Adrienne understand how to move forward in a complicated relationship with her mother. Don't miss this conversation!

Show NotesPodcast Title: The Fortified Life Podcast with Jason DavisEpisode: 195Guest: Dr. Chinwé Williams – Trauma Therapist, Best-Selling Author, and SpeakerEpisode Title: Helping Kids and Teens Heal from Despair Through ConnectionSeries: Tools & ResourcesEpisode Summary:In this powerful episode of The Fortified Life Podcast, host Jason Davis welcomes Dr. Chinwé Williams, a trauma therapist, best-selling author, and nationally recognized speaker. As part of the Tools & Resources series, this episode dives deep into the youth mental health crisis and offers biblically sound, psychologically informed guidance for parents, educators, ministry leaders, and mentors.Dr. Williams discusses her co-authored book, Seen: Healing Despair and Anxiety in Kids and Teens Through the Power of Connection, sharing the origin story of the book, staggering statistics on youth anxiety and suicide, and practical tools for building connection and emotional resilience.From understanding the neuroscience of despair to embracing Christ-centered mental wellness, this conversation equips listeners to respond with compassion, clarity, and Christlike care.Guest Bio:Dr. Chinwé Williams is a Licensed Professional Counselor, Board-Certified Counselor, Educator, and Certified EMDR Therapist with over 18 years of experience. She specializes in stress, anxiety, trauma recovery, and emotional resilience among youth and adults. Dr. Williams is a co-author of "Seen" and the newly released "Calm, Courageous, and Connected," and she is a sought-after keynote speaker who integrates faith and mental health with empathy and excellence.Key Topics Covered:The Mental Health Crisis in Youth:Dr. Williams shares that anxiety is now the most common mental health condition in both youth and adults, with youth suicide rates rising sharply, especially among Black boys ages 10–14.The Inspiration Behind Seen:Co-authored with youth pastor Will Hutcherson, Seen was birthed out of real-world experiences and a divine collaboration to offer practical tools for adults to connect with hurting young people.The Power of Connection:Dr. Williams explains that despair—defined as a combination of hopelessness and isolation—cannot be healed through logic or discipline but through emotional connection.The Neuroscience of Despair:In moments of emotional distress, the brain's logic center shuts down while the emotional center (the amygdala) goes into overdrive. Connection, not correction, is the bridge to healing.Practical Strategies for Parents & Caregivers:Observe behavior and check in compassionately.Prioritize regular moments of meaningful connection.Listen more than you speak.Avoid rushing to solutions—presence is often more potent than advice.Help children name their emotions and validate their experiences.Faith & Mental Health:Dr. Williams urges believers not to shy away from addressing mental health challenges, reminding us that Jesus Himself experienced a full range of human emotions. Spiritual strength includes emotional awareness and obedience in seeking healing and support.Notable Quotes:"Despair is suffering without meaning." – Dr. Chinwé Williams"You can't logic a child out of despair. They need connection, not correction.""Fear and self-doubt are not signs to stop. Often, they are signs you're walking in obedience.""Being unemotional does not equate to being more spiritual."Resource Mentioned:
Today on the podcast, I'm joined by my friend Toni, in this on-air counseling session focused on the excruciating journey of her marriage coming to an end, and what it looked like to begin healing alone. She opens up about a really meaningful interaction we had, and how God used that conversation to convict her about her consumption of alcohol in the aftermath of her tragedy. We get a front row seat into the journey of healing after the loss of a marriage, and how you have to reveal what needs to be healed, rather than cover it up or numb it.

Hey team! In today's episode, I'm chatting with Valerie McIntyre, a Licensed Professional Counselor, an ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider, and the author of A Journey to a Valiant Mind, a book that dives into navigating ADHD with resilience and self-compassion. In our conversation, we dive into how ADHD isn't just about task management, but how, more often than not, it's also about emotional regulation. Valerie talks about the complex emotions that come with ADHD, especially for late-diagnosed individuals, and how those feelings often get tangled up with shame and self-judgment. We also touch on how perfectionism, rejection sensitivity, and even seemingly small tasks can build up into emotional barriers. Valerie's approach emphasizes compassion, and this episode is filled with tools to help you break free from self-doubt and cultivate a more positive, empowered relationship with your ADHD. If you'd life to follow along on the show notes page you can find that at https://HackingYourADHD.com/231 https://tinyurl.com/y835cnrk - YouTube https://www.patreon.com/HackingYourADHD - Patreon This Episode's Top Tips 1. It's important to recognize that emotional struggles are often rooted in our internalized beliefs about our ADHD symptoms. These beliefs shape how we perceive ourselves and what we're able to accomplish, and our emotional responses. 2. Often, there can be a struggle when shifting from one task to another. If we can acknowledge that there may be a delay in how your brain transitions between tasks and give ourselves time to adapt, we can make those transitions easier. 3. We can use reflective exercises, like journaling or discussion questions, to gain insight into our emotional triggers. This can help us identify better coping mechanisms that actually address the underlying issues we're trying to overcome.

Gospel Scripture: (all NIV) Romans 3:23 “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,” Romans 3:24 “and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.” Romans 3:25 (a) “God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement, through faith in his blood.” Hebrews 9:22 (b) “without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.” Romans 5:8 “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:11 “Not only is this so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.” John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” Romans 10:9 “That if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” Luke 15:10 says “In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.” Romans 8:1 “Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus” Ephesians 1:13–14 “And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession- to the praise of his glory.” Ephesians 1:15–23 “For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers. I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.” Ephesians 2:8–10 “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God – not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God‘s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.“ Ephesians 2:13 “But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.“ Philippians 1:6 “being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.”

Today is a really special session with a very special person, because today I sit down with my friend, and my “real life client”, Levi Lusko. A few years ago, Pastor Levi Lusko went through a devastating season filled with unexpected anxiety, panic attacks, and “spiraling”, and it hit him hard. We sat down for a raw, real, honest conversation about that difficult season, and processed his experience and what he learned as he navigated that hard time, including the morning he picked up the phone and called me to let me know he needed help. I am beyond proud of my friend, all that he's learned, and how strong he's become over the past few years. This guy is the real deal, and I couldn't be more honored to have played a small role in his healing journey. If you're struggling in this stage of your life, please don't miss this important session with Levi Lusko. You can also watch the full episode on YouTube.

Lawyers often face relentless exposure to stress and trauma, whether navigating emotionally charged areas of the law, handling high-stakes matters, or confronting a host of other pressures inherent to the profession. On top of this, they must also address the emotional toll legal issues may take on their clients.

Rocky Dhir talks with Alicia Freeman of the Texas Lawyers' Assistance Program (TLAP) about navigating emotional distress (both for attorneys and clients) and accessing needed support. They discuss how to appropriately engage with clients' emotional needs, set healthy boundaries, and provide necessary resources.

I'm having an on-air counseling session with Jinger Duggar, a member of the reality TV show family, the Duggars, whose show chronicled the everyday life of this conservative family of 19 children. She talks about growing up in a strict religious upbringing, how it impacted her life, her faith in God, and her people-pleasing tendencies. We talk about the extent of people pleasing she struggled with, and the combination of nature/nurture that shaped her life…and what it has looked like to begin to “undo” that process in this season of her life.

What if your private practice could be a place where people stop trying to fix themselves—and start actually feeling what's going on inside? In this powerful episode, Kerry Thomas pulls back the curtain on her 25-year journey in mental health, sharing how a personal wake-up call challenged everything she thought she knew about therapy, medication, and what it really means to heal. We talk about the connection between nutrition and mood, why numbing emotions isn't the answer, and how private practice therapists can stop pathologizing normal human experiences. This one's honest, eye-opening, and a little bit rebellious—in the best way. Let's get into it.
