Doctor and psychiatrist, David Kopacz works with veterans providing holistic mental health in the primary care setting. He has a national VA teaching position as a Whole Health Education Champion — teaching VA staff about Whole Health and person-centered care. David has spoken internationally and developed classes on self-care and well-being for veterans, staff, and health professional students.
Writing about staff wellness, trauma, post-traumatic growth, healing and spirituality, transformation, holistic health, and the healing power of story and creativity, David has authored several books. An ongoing collaboration with co-author, Joseph Rael (Beautiful Painted Arrow) explores a cooperative framework for healing through learning and cultural tradition. 
David is a painter, but he also considers the identity of artist more broadly, in that we are all artists looking for the right medium to work in. Art and creativity are often missing from medicine, but are vital dimensions of healing.

"Walking the Medicine Wheel: Healing Trauma & PTSD" is a deeply insightful book that blends indigenous wisdom, particularly from Native American traditions, with modern psychological approaches to healing trauma and PTSD. The author, Breene M. D., utilizes the Medicine Wheel — a sacred symbol representing cycles, balance, and healing — as a framework for understanding and addressing trauma. The book provides readers with a unique perspective on emotional and psychological recovery, encouraging readers to align their inner selves and restore balance in their lives.
Through this healing journey, Breene explores the spiritual, physical, mental, and emotional aspects of trauma, and presents a holistic approach to restoring harmony. The book emphasizes mindfulness, self-compassion, and connecting with nature, along with addressing past trauma from a place of acceptance and strength. It serves as a guide for those who are working through PTSD and seeking to reconnect with their authentic selves.
