The Wisdom Therapy Institute has made a commitment to providing services to returning veterans and their families. Our services are offered on a sliding scale with a minimum payment of $25.00 per session for individuals, couples, group therapy, and support groups.

Our mission is to offer the services of the Institute to veterans with stabilized medical challenges, who do not pose a risk to themselves or others, are not in acute crisis, and can be seen within an outpatient environment. Trauma-related anxiety and depression takes many forms. For this reason the Institute’s program for veterans is initiated with a series of assessments that are evaluated in consultation with licensed clinicians, and a formal care plan is reviewed with supervisors before it is presented to the client. Once agreement has been reached with the client on a course of treatment, progress in the case is evaluated in both individual and group supervision.

The Institute has also made a commitment to the families of veterans, to support them in the event that their adult children are facing serious medical and mental health crises. Family therapy is available for extended families with children. Groups are available for fathers and mothers, as well as a men’s group for fathers and male relatives, and a women’s group for mother’s and female relatives. Groups require a minimum of 8 participants.  Our goal is to provide an environment where it is possible to explore and address the stress, anger, and grief that may be part of a parent’s or family’s experience, and to make available tools for coping with crisis and its aftermath.
