Counseling

COUNSELING

COUNSELING: 1 to 1 Peer & Groups- This part of our program is a little more specialized, as each of our Peer Counselors are Master's level mental health Counselors, and Combat Veterans themselves. We hold the same, and a few more specialized licenses and certificates than most VA Social Workers. The primary efforts with the Counseling are not to help Vets "find a cure for PTSD", but learn how to live with PTSD and often depression, and the often co-occurring substance abuse that comes with it- from fellow Vets and peers. Each of our Counseling staff sees more than 60+ Veterans per week, for 1 on 1 Counseling, as well as multiple PTSD support Groups.
