In this continuation of the virtual NVERS Speaker Series, Dr. Tania Glenn will join NVERS for her presentation: Resilience Through Chaos. Now, more than ever, first responders and healthcare workers must be resilient. Resilience means being, living, working, playing, and expecting well. It means living the best life possible. While most people want to be more resilient, many simply do not know how. This presentation will help participants define and understand resilience, and it teaches ways to build frontline workforce resilience in a no-nonsense and completely achievable way.
Dr. Tania Glenn (PsyD, LCSW) responded to the terrorists' attacks at the Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City in 1995 and to Ground Zero in New York City in 2001, Hurricane Katrina in 2005, the Dallas Police shootings in 2016, and the shooting at the Ft. Lauderdale Airport in 2017 as a first responder and licensed clinician from Austin, TX. Having worked with thousands of homeland defense and security professionals in supporting multiple military campaigns and/or critical incidents, Dr. Glenn specializes in the identification and treatment of severe stress and trauma. And because Dr. Glenn focuses on the military and public safety communities, she has worked with hundreds of individuals in combating their PTSD. Dr. Glenn has been in practice for thirty years interacting with professionals from the federal, state, and local arenas. Dr. Glenn's colleagues refer to her as a "warrior healer" because she is passionate about her work and dedicates her practice to helping those who serve and protect.
