Testimonials
“I have worked closely with Ignacio (Nacho) for 8 years and witnessed the incredible, positive, and life changing impact he has had on individuals and entire public safety organizations. His professionalism and his approachable personal style is incredible, and if I had an employee who needed aid or I needed to develop a wellness program, Nacho would be my first call.”
-Chief Todd L. Thomas, Appleton PD (WI - Ret.)
“Finding a counselor that knows and can relate to law enforcement personnel is hard to find. We couldn’t ask for more when we were fortunate to be introduced to Ignacio, an active police officer and certified counselor. Nacho has provided critical incident debriefing and general counseling services for the Two Rivers Police Department for the past several years. We couldn’t be more pleased! Nacho provides professional, compassionate, and empathetic support to those in a demanding field and that often work under the most challenging of circumstances.”
-Chief Brian W. Kohlmeier, TRPD (WI - Ret.)
“Ignacio Enriquez (Nacho) was able to develop trust quickly with our officers which is something that is difficult to do in law enforcement. He has made himself available for department wellness checks and critical incident debriefs. Nacho is a vital component in the Shawano Police Department Wellness Program, making it very successful and accepted by staff.”
-Capt. Shane Stange, Shawano Police Department (WI)
“With locations throughout the country, it is imperative our Leadership Team is equipped to handle tense situations on their own. We have been partnering with Ignacio (Nacho) Enriquez for many years to train our team in the art of de-escalation. His style of teaching makes it easy for them to relate, understand the content, and execute. We have seen many positive outcomes since the inception of his program.”
-Bob Huss, Director of Security and Facilities U.S. Venture“At FDLPD we are continually striving to develop a culture of wellness through an environment that supports the idea that “it’s ok to not be ok”, safe spaces to have a voice, and other protections and care for our FDLPD Family like removing the stigma from asking for help. Our Department recognizes the need to secure and protect our own health, wellness, and safety at every level of our organization – starting with me. Early on we identified that Ignacio “Nacho” Enriquez would provide our FDLPD Family the ability to be truly heard and understood by an individual who has felt the impacts on what it means to be a police officer or part of a police department. Nacho provides our Department a sense of safety and trust as we take proactive approaches to focus our efforts on education and prevention through mandatory 1-on-1 wellness sessions. We are better today because Nacho is part of our wellness programs.”
-Chief Aaron Goldstein, Fond du Lac Police Department (WI)
