Stacy is trained in EMDR training and is currently working at a family-based treatment center and her private practice in Tulsa.   Dr. William Zangwill is one of the original EMDR trainers, certified by Dr. Francine Shapiro. He has trained therapists in EMDR and other methodologies across the US, Europe, Asia and the Middle East; and his publications include “Combining EMDR and Schema Focused Therapy,” “The Need to Strengthen the Mindfulness Component of EMDR” and a chapter on sexual victimization in “Our Sexuality.” Currently, Dr. Zangwill practices in New York where he conducts EMDR trainings and specializes in the treatment of PTSD and sexual, marital and family problems  We are thrilled that he is one of our keynote speakers at this year’s Zarrow Mental Health Symposium, and we are so excited that he joined us on the podcast.  It is important to note that the conversation includes a brief story regarding sexual assault. While it’s valuable and relevant dialogue, we understand that it can be difficult for some listeners.  The Mental Health Download starts now. 

Om Podcasten

Mental Health Association Oklahoma created The Mental Health Download podcast to share stories each week about mental illness, homelessness, incarceration and suicide, and how each can impact our lives in a profound way. Mental health affects everyone, yet the social stigma attached to mental health issues keeps so many of our family members, friends, colleagues and neighbors silent. Why are we so afraid to talk about these issues? Each week, our host Adi McCasland invites guests to share how mental illness, suicide, homelessness and incarceration have affected their work or lives.
