Keep the Truth Tellers Around You with Dr. Jennifer Prohaska

This isn’t your typical feel-good chat about mental health. In this brutally honest and refreshingly grounded episode, Dr. Jennifer Prohaska cuts through the fluff with a clear message: we’re focusing on the wrong end of the problem when it comes to wellness in public safety.
Dr. Jen explains why organizational dysfunction, not trauma alone, is what’s pushing people out the door—and why even the best therapy can’t fix a toxic culture. If you’re a tired patrol cop at 2 a.m. with earbuds in or a fire chief trying to get your people to stay, this one’s for you.

ABOUT DR. JENNIFER PROHASKA

Dr. Jennifer Prohaska is the founder of Tactical Longevity and a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in neuro-rehabilitation psychology, trauma, and critical incident response. She earned her Ph.D. from the University of Kansas in 2013 and completed her residency at the University of Kansas Medical Center, where she focused on treating traumatic brain and spinal cord injuries with life-altering consequences. Dr. Prohaska’s expertise extends to use-of-force encounters, and she holds a Force Science Certification, making her one of the few psychologists with advanced knowledge in this area.

As the driving force behind Tactical Longevity, Dr. Prohaska is dedicated to preparing agencies in high-pressure industries for critical incidents. Her scientifically backed methods are designed to help both individuals and departments excel, no matter their limitations. Since establishing her practice, she has expanded her reach to support over 54 entities across three states, providing clear and effective programs that develop top performers ready for high-risk, high-stakes situations.

Dr. Prohaska is also a nationally sought-after speaker, known for her work with agencies on topics such as PTSD, chronic stress, and leadership mental health. Her deep experience in both clinical settings and public safety has made her a trusted resource for agencies looking to enhance their psychological readiness and operational effectiveness.
