The Front Line: Veterans/First Responders Treatment Program
It is no secret that veterans, first responders and active duty military members face unique mental health challenges that stem from their high-stress—and often traumatic—experiences. Specialized treatment programs tailored to these populations are crucial, as they address the specific psychological and emotional needs that arise from their service.
By providing targeted care, programs like The Front Line at Connections Wellness Group, offers a supportive environment where veterans and first responders can connect with peers who understand their struggles, which often fosters resilience and recovery. Through our specialized approaches, we ensure our care is relevant, effective, and compassionate to promote overall well-being and mental health.
Our Mission for The Front Line
The mission of The Front Line at Connections Wellness Group is to reignite the hope, love, and passion within the selfless, committed, and courageous to end silent suffering today and hereafter.
This program offers outpatient mental health treatment for veterans and first responders, including both in-person and virtual options.
The severity of a patient’s symptoms will determine the level of care, which can include a partial hospitalization program (PHP) and/or an intensive outpatient program (IOP) for veterans and first responders.
If you are a veteran, first responder or active duty military member in need of mental health services, reach out to us here. Our caring, professional staff is ready to answer your questions or get you started on a path toward wellness.
Who Can Benefit from The Front Line Mental Health Treatment?
Veterans and first responders that can benefit from The Front Line include the following:
Those who have experienced a worsening of symptoms despite individual therapy and medications and therefore need to be seen more than one time per week for stabilization and extra support.
Those who have recently completed treatment at an inpatient facility—this is the perfect transition to ease back into everyday life.
The Connections Wellness Group program specializes in working with patients who experience:
Irritability/hostility
Poor impulse control
Suicidal thoughts
If you or a loved one is a veteran, first responder or in active duty and could benefit from this program, consider working with our highly qualified team to get the support you need.
What to Expect from The Front Line, a Veteran- and First Responder-Focused Mental Health PHP/IOP?
The Front Line at Connections Wellness Group offers a combination of evidence-based therapies and holistic approaches. We work with each patient individually to devise a treatment plan that addresses specific needs and goals. Regardless of your level of care, the therapeutic approaches may include the following:
Group Therapy
Group therapy is 3-4 hours per day, Monday through Friday. This includes time for emotional education, skills training, and deeper processing.
Individual Therapy
We offer weekly or biweekly individual therapy sessions, depending on your level of need.
Medications
You’ll have 1-2 psychiatric visits each week to ensure we get the medications just right, should you choose to use them.
Specialized Tracks
We have specialized tracks that focus on either trauma, substance use, worldviews, or a mixture of all three.
Yoga, Art, and Music Therapy
These groups also use yoga, art, and music skills to work through emotions in ways that regular talk therapy can’t—all to help decompress psychologically and physiologically.
