It takes strength to get help.

If you are active duty military, retired military personnel, a veteran, first responder or healthcare worker, you know you have strength to do what it takes. Maybe you also know that men and women in uniform often don’t get the mental health treatment they need, when they need it.

We want to change that.

Help for Heroes® provides treatment and therapy specifically geared for people who routinely face trauma, physical and mental stress, and life-threatening situations. We offer many paths to recovery, including Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) treatment, substance use treatment, and medication management.

But our programs are a lot more than that. They’re a chance to connect with others who are learning to cope with similar circumstances.

What Is Help for Heroes^®?

We are a dedicated treatment program designed to serve the mental health and substance use needs of active duty and retired military personnel, veterans, first responders, and healthcare workers.

Mental illness doesn’t just hurt you – it can hurt others around you. People in uniform often struggle with challenges at work and at home, which can lead to employment and legal problems, even suicidal thoughts and behaviors.

What We Treat

Help for Heroes® specifically addresses trauma-related symptoms, mental health concerns and addictions that may be triggered by experiencing or witnessing terrifying or dangerous events, circumstantial life stressors and more. Through our specialized treatment programs, individuals can overcome challenges brought on by repeated exposure to stress and trauma in the line of duty.

How You’ll Be Treated

First and foremost, you will be treated with dignity and respect.

You will be an active participant in your treatment plan from day one. Following a mental health assessment with our staff, we’ll recommend a plan, and together we will determine your best plan of care for you.

Inpatient Treatment

Inpatient treatment is designed for people who need 24-hour medical care, which may include medically assisted detox. Individuals in crisis or who pose a danger to themselves or to others may benefit most from inpatient treatment. Our evidence-based approach involves a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), expressive therapy, wellness education, uniform-specific treatment enhancements, recreational therapy, and more. These techniques have been shown to be effective when working with active military, retired military personnel, veterans, and healthcare workers. Your treatment plan will be customized to your needs and goals and will include individual and group therapy focused on topics that are relevant to you.
