In this episode of Untold Valor, we sit down with Grace Caulfield, LPC, and Clinic Director at the Steven A. Cohen Military Family Clinic at Easterseals. With over 24 years of experience, Grace shares how her team provides timely, comprehensive mental health support to service members, veterans, and their families.
Grace discusses how the clinic reduces barriers to care, offers services via telehealth across several states, and focuses on early intervention as prevention. She also explains how trauma can ripple through families and the importance of treating the entire support system alongside veterans and service members.
Don’t miss this powerful message of hope and for a reminder that the difference between illness and wellness is just one word: we. If you or someone you love is struggling, you are not alone.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
