If you’re an active-duty service member, or a veteran, or the family member of one of the above, you are dealing with unique challenges. First, you have a profession that always has built in danger, that may require you to sacrifice your life. Your family lives with that danger daily. You are more likely to experience trauma. Your family has unique stressors due to your absence, but has pride in your service. Do you find yourself worrying about how your family is coping during deployment? Are you looking for a provider who can see you and your spouse while he’s on assignment across the country or overseas? Are you seeking someone who is a fellow veteran that understands what PCS, TDY, and deployments are when trying to understand your current situation to talk to about these stressors? Is military life taking a particular toll on your relationships at home?
