NATAL has been working with people who are suffering from PTSD and trauma for more than 25 years. What are the most challenging aspects of working with victims of terror and war? How do you address these challenges in your work at NATAL?
As we just mentioned, a major focus of what NATAL does is to help and train other therapists and clinicians. What advice would you give to clinicians who are new to dealing with trauma patients?
How can non-professionals support friends or family members who have experienced traumatic events?
Over the years, how has your work impacted your view of human resilience and recovery?
How do you manage the emotional impact of working closely with trauma survivors?

Christi Kleckner, the Executive Director at Axiom Care, an addiction treatment and detox facility serving the greater Phoenix area joins eHealth Radio and the Addiction Prevention & Information Channel.
Listen to interview with host Eric Michaels and guest Christi Kleckner discuss the following:
Tell us more about Axiom and what services you provide to the greater Phoenix area.
How did you get into this work?
Dispel some myths for us. What is one common misconception about addiction that you would like to clear up?
I know you are closely involved in Axiom’s Substance Use Disorder Urgent Care. Tell me more about this. What is it and who is it for?
Substance Abuse not only affects the individual, it can take a toll on the entire family. What advice do you give to people who have a loved one either struggling with substance abuse or about to enter treatment?
With an inspiring redemption story from methamphetamine addiction and prison to a long-term recovery and a successful career, Christi Kleckner is the embodiment of empathetic care. Christi serves as the Executive Director at Axiom Care, showing up every day with a passion to care for the patients. Christi knows first-hand just how hard (and just how rewarding) it is to be in recovery. Christi struggled with a methamphetamine addiction that took almost everything from her, and spent a lot of time in and out of jail.
Christi’s history of substance use is not unlike most in Arizona, as methamphetamine is the state’s number one drug threat (especially as street prices drop). She proudly shares her Department of Corrections (DOC) number because it makes her relatable to many others in recovery looking for their second chance as well.
Christi experienced the apathetic care that most recovery centers give and was even told, “You’ll be back here” while in jail. Eventually, being abstinent from drugs, she began working as a graveyard Behavioral Health Technician for a recovery center. However, it seemed that not enough people cared about the patients or their jobs – just the paycheck that came with it. Until she found Axiom Care. Christi seamlessly aligned with Axiom Care’s passion for holistic, long-term care and seeing patients find their second chances. Her personal experiences supported her in forming her leadership style and finding new ways to make a difference daily. Christi is passionate about transforming lives and reshaping the landscape of substance use treatment.

Dr. Martinez engages in domestic and international consulting for various individuals, groups, and organizations, and offers individual and couples consulting via Tele-mental health services.
Topic: Why a Failed Relationship Does NOT Make You a Failure
Listen to interview with host Eric Michaels and guest Dr. Nikki Martinez discuss the following:
You note there are 4 types of Failure we all experience. Can you explain what each of those are?
Do different people/personalities, experience these types of ‘failures’ in different ways?
Why do people tend to tie their sense of ‘self’ to the success or failure of a relationship?
We have all been guilty of ‘rewriting’ the history of a relationship after a breakup. What does that look like in situations where people feel like a failed relationship makes them a failure?
You have talked in other segments we have done, about the end of a relationship being an opportunity for growth and something that can be thought of in a positive way. Can you speak about this? You also have a new project you are a Contributor for, and it segways nicely into this as we end, would you like to share a brief overview of it with our listeners?
Dr. Nicole Martinez received her master’s and her Doctorate from the Illinois School of Professional Psychology and completed her pre-doctoral and post-doctoral fellowship at Gateway Foundation in Lake Villa, Illinois. Prior to that, she attended the University of St. Francis where she completed a double major in Psychology and Therapeutic Recreation, with a specialization in the arts. Dr. Martinez has experience working with adolescents, children, and adults in individual, family, and group treatment.
Her therapeutic style can be described as integrative, assessing the needs and style that will best serve the individual client. She typically has a mix of Cognitive Behavioral Psychotherapy and various holistic approaches, with an emphasis on CBT, Solution Focused Therapy, Reality Therapy, and Positive Psychology. She believes in exploring the connection between the body and the mind to treat all the individuals’ needs. Her belief is that an individual must explore many areas of their functioning to ensure optimum health physically and emotionally.
She stresses the essential belief that the therapist and client relationship is collaborative in nature, and the two are partners who communicate from the first steps of designing the course and goals of treatment, as well as what the priorities will be. Dr. Martinez understands that it is just as important to identify any treatment styles, tools, techniques, or methods that did work, but what did not work as well, so that the two of you can work together charting a new path and avoiding precious time lost and frustration on that which has already been proven to be a poor fit.
Dr. Martinez also understands that each person is unique, there is no one size fits all, and that the needs of an individual may not only change from the initial inception of a treatment plan but from month to month or session to session, and that adapting and meeting the patient; where they are at; at any given moment is essential to both letting the patient knows they are being heard and attended to, as well as positive treatment outcomes.

Dr. Martinez engages in domestic and international consulting for various individuals, groups, and organizations, and offers individual and couples consulting via Tele-mental health services.
Topic: It’s NOT the Medication, It’s the Motivation!
Listen to interview with host Eric Michaels and guest Dr. Nikki Martinez discuss the following:
As the topic of the show notes, there Is an important misunderstanding about the fact that pre-existing suicidal thoughts cause suicidal behavior in individuals, not mental health medications. Could you explain what that misunderstanding is?
You note that it is essential that a child has a thorough evaluation before starting an antidepressant by a trained professional. Who should conduct it, what should it entail, and why is it so important?
The FDA has put a “Black Box” warning on ALL antidepressants but has only approved 9 for children and youth, and you also have some research you would like to discuss that shows it is not these medications that cause suicidal thoughts.
You note that a major problem is that parents, guardians, and providers don’t always realize that a teen is suicidal, and so they blame the medication when no one is asking the questions and having the conversation.
Based on your experience, and reports from individuals you have worked with over the years, what conversations could providers and guardians be having with children and teens to help make sure these incidents are significantly reduced?
