I am thrilled to have back on - our feature presenter for our Tuesday Night weekly podcast event: Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, Certified Sex Offender Treatment Provider, Licensed Professional Counselor, Founder of Survivor Support, Podcast host of own podcast and channel @JonKUhlerLPC and @UnMaskingTheTransMovement on YouTube, father of 3, husband to his high school sweetheart, survivor advocate, professional knapsack remover, whistleblower, and someone I’m grateful to have on the battlefield with us: Jon Uhler.
In case you are new here or missed Jon’s briefing on his background on the first episode we did together, here is a short recap of Jon’s many accolades and credentials: Jon’s work began over 30 years ago and the evolution of his career path is nothing short of astonishing. His education includes attending Epic Bible College, Biola University, Talbot School of Theology, and California State University and Fullerton. He’s worked in both clinical and administrative capacities, outpatient and hospital settings, intensive day treatment settings, residential treatment programs, and in secure (locked) facilities - including over 11 years on Psychology Staff within the Pennsylvania Dept. of Corrections where he’s logged more clinical contact hours within Solitary Confinement than any Psych Staff in the entire US. Prior to his work with incarcerated men, he spent years working with sexual abuse Survivors, and treating Severely Emotionally Disturbed adolescents in group homes and within the largest intensive psychiatric Residential Treatment Facility for troubled youth west of the MIssissippi.
When Jon is not providing professional therapy or podcasting, he serves in an advocacy role, toward helping increase safety for vulnerable women and minors, who are being placed in harm's way by those pushing dangerous ideologies, public policies, and legislation.
I think at this point, it’s safe to say that Jon has been providing all of US with weekly therapy sessions with the immense library of knowledge he has been sharing with us on ‘The Imagination’. I’ve heard such amazing comments from so many of you including how he’s even been helping therapists understand their patients better. This series has been of so much value to all of you following along and Jon’s playlist has become my personal ‘go-to’ for survivors who reachout wondering what their first steps should be after waking up. Re-learning about our psychology and physiology is no easy task and Jon has provided so much helpful education in helping us understand the truth about how trauma affects our bodies as well as what to expect from your therapist when seeking treatment. I, for one, have gained so much value from this series in understanding my podcast guests better as well as my partner at home, who is also a survivor. If you’ve missed the other episodes Jon has done, I’ll have his playlist in the show notes. He has taught us everything from journaling to learning about systems and parts, understanding triggers and boundaries, and most recently - we began going down the rabbit hole of answering the question, “What makes a sexual predator?” where Jon breaks down the psychology of deviant psychopathy. We are all so honored to get to learn from Jon and I ask you all to please put away whatever you are doing and give him your full attention!
