Summary: In this episode of the Veterans Outlook podcast, host Robert Jordan speaks with Dr. Brian Livesay, a clinical psychologist specializing in veteran mental health. They discuss the concept of moral injury, the importance of agency in the healing process, and the innovative approach of Critical Memory Integration (CMI) in therapy. Dr. Livesay emphasizes the need for veterans to be seen as experts of their own experiences and the role of therapists as supportive resources. The conversation highlights the complexities of trauma, the significance of emotional healing, and the necessity for a shift in therapeutic practices to serve veterans better.
