You’ve made sacrifices to help keep our country safe and secure. You deserve a mental health provider who understands your unique point of view.
As a member of the military, veteran or family member, you face many of the same daily challenges that your civilian neighbors face. But you also have added stressors: frequent, sometimes sudden moves; deployments around the United States and overseas; and combat- or mission-related fatigue that can sometimes last long after the mission is over.
That’s where Star Behavioral Health Providers can help. SBHP provides training to licensed mental health providers on military culture, the deployment cycle and treatments that have shown to be effective with military-connected clients. Then we place those trained providers in our online registry, where you can find one near you who matches your needs.
