CMHA Manitoba and Winnipeg Board Member, Olga Shmelova, joins our host James Welsman to give a brief historical perspective on the current Ukrainian situation and outline factors that help Ukrainians stay strong and fight for their freedom. After listening to this episode, you will have a greater understanding of intergenerational trauma and how it has contributed to Ukrainian culture and mentality, you will learn how bravery is a secret weapon for Ukrainians as a national response to trauma. This war has affected us all globally, and Olga provides tangible ways for you to support Ukraine.
Olga Shmelova - Ukrainian immigrant, Mental health Clinician, certified psychotherapist, instructor, and world explorer - moved to Winnipeg from Ukraine after Crimea's annexation in 2014. She has worked with psychological trauma for over 10 years, helping her clients to find meanings of their experiences and find strength to move forward with their lives. She brings a multicultural perspective into her professional approach, and strongly believes that we all are citizens of the world.
