This one from the archives is with one of my favorite guests, Gerald W. Vest, LMFT. Gerry is no longer with us yet his passion, which I'm sure you'll hear in this interview, was a driving force for me as I've continued to produce this podcast. Gerry's compassion for those veterans he worked with is so friggin' inspiring. I so wish I could have him back on the show. Gerald W. Vest, LMFT was a military OneSource and TRICARE provider for individuals, couples, and families. He supervised students and professionals for licensing requirements. In addition, he organized, consulted, and trained for the Community Integrative Health Collaboratives, which served warriors, veterans, and their families using integrative and holistic approaches to healing.Gerald also served as a Senior Social Worker for the premier US Army Warrior Restoration and Resilience Center (R and R Center) at Ft.
