Counseling for Veterans – Healing for Heroes
Get confidential counseling that gets to the heart of healing for veterans and ex-military.
Veterans: You've Been Through a Lot
As a veteran, you endured immense stress in hostile environments. Though that time has passed, the effects can linger. You might experience:
- Flashbacks
- Nightmares
- Intrusive thoughts
- Hypervigilance
- Addiction
- Detachment
- Concentration problems
Rest assured, these are common challenges for veterans. It’s always possible to seek help, even if you served decades ago.
Addressing Trauma From Your Service
Trauma is an emotional response to overwhelming events. It can leave you feeling disconnected from yourself and your emotions. You may have suppressed your feelings to cope during service, but now those buried emotions may resurface.
In counseling sessions, we’ll gently explore those overwhelming experiences, allowing you to process them in a safe space. By bringing those moments to light, we can create new pathways for healing.
Which Therapy Approach is Best for Veterans?
I tailor therapy to your specific needs. Some practical approaches for veterans include:
- Prolonged Exposure (PE): Gradually confront the trauma in a safe environment to break the cycle of avoidance.
- Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT): Challenge unhelpful thoughts and beliefs that may fuel distress.
- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): Learn to accept complex thoughts and feelings, focus on your values, and take actions aligned with your goals.
