Our Clients: Local and Out-of-State
Our clients include soldiers from the Ft Campbell area and veterans from various states. We offer both weekly sessions and daily intense trauma resolution therapy. The intense daily sessions are particularly helpful for those who travel for treatments. Many clients opt for an intense treatment approach; they meet with a therapist on a daily basis for 2 hour sessions followed later in the afternoon with a debriefing. Both stabilization and trauma resolution are treatment components of our treatment approach. One week of this treatment model is equalivalent to 2 months of weekly appointments. It is an accelerated model designed for veterans who are highly motivated to resolve their PTSD related symptoms and, therefore, are willing to set aside the time for intensive treatment.
Soldier Center is currently developing Soldier Lodge as a not-for-profit treatment center which provides lodging and treatment for America's veterans. We are not affiliated with the government but rather military retirees and citizens dedicated to offering our veterans competent treatment in a timely manner.
Spouses seek individual and couple therapy at Soldier Center. Additionally, we provide psycho-educational groups which assists family members in understanding the the signs and symptoms of combat trauma as well as developing coping strategies for getting through this challenging period.
