What We Treat – Veterans
Going to therapy shows strength and can help you feel better.
Whether you’re active duty military or a veteran, you most likely have been through a lot. Being a part of the military is an honor and one widely respected. It takes courage, strength, discipline, and focus to be a part of the military and being a part of the military will always be a large part of who you are.
Still, just like any other challenge in life, being on active duty or a veteran can be a struggle. From moving often to adjusting back into civilian life to coping with loss and experiencing difficult moments are all common experiences amongst those who are or who have been in the military.
Just as you work on your fitness and tactical training, therapy can help you work on your mental and emotional fitness too. Understanding how you’re feeling and what you’ve been through can help you connect better with those around you and help you transition into your next move in life.
As the US Department of Veteran Affairs states, anxiety is a normal biological reaction to a stressful event. Older Veterans were found no more likely to have anxiety than non-Veterans—In 2014, a team from the VA Palo Alto Health Care System and Stanford University School of Medicine examined data on 7,000 men age 50 or older, and found that Veterans were no more likely than non-Veterans to have depression or anxiety.
Why is this helpful to note? Because if you’re experiencing an element of anxiety or simply just feeling off or not okay, it’s more common than you may think.
Therapy can help and is fully confidential. It’s a space to be heard, to share what’s been bothering you with a clinical third party, who is there to support and guide you in feeling better and adjusting to the life moments you’re in right now.
If you’re a family member of a veteran or have an active-duty military person in your life and you’re looking for mental and emotional wellness support, we are here for you too.
