Stronger Together: A Safe Space for Veterans to Heal, Reflect, and Rebuild

Returning to civilian life after military service, or trying to balance both worlds, can be overwhelming. Many veterans face invisible wounds, ongoing emotional struggles, and the pressure to stay strong for their families and communities. Yet far too often, these challenges go unspoken, and the need for mental health support goes unmet.

At Cornerstone Health, we believe you deserve more than just a thank-you for your service. You deserve whole-person mental health care, grounded in empathy, connection, and real support. That’s why our counseling services are tailored specifically for veterans and their families—a place where you can reflect, process, and begin to rebuild.

You’ve served with strength—now let us support your well-being with compassionate, confidential care. Contact Cornerstone Health today.

You’re Not Alone in the Struggle

The return home is often just the beginning of a new kind of battle. Veterans and active duty service members may face a range of mental health conditions, from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and traumatic brain injury (TBI) to depression, anxiety, and substance use issues.

It’s common to feel:

  • Disconnected from friends or family members
  • Trapped in memories from combat or military trauma
  • Angry, numb, or emotionally distant
  • Unsure of your purpose or identity after leaving military life
  • Overwhelmed by navigating VA benefits, finding a mental health provider, or accessing treatment options

The truth is, you are not weak for struggling—you are human. And healing is possible with the right mental health resources and support.

Why Anchorage’s Military Community Matters

Anchorage is home to one of the largest military installations in the country, and with that comes a vibrant, resilient, and diverse community of veterans and active-duty families. At Cornerstone Health, we’re committed to supporting those who serve, not only with primary medical care, but also with emotional and relational support that meets the unique needs of military life.

We know that the challenges don’t end with discharge papers. That’s why we provide services for:

  • Veterans adjusting to civilian life
  • Active-duty service members under pressure
  • Military spouses navigating long separations or homecoming transitions
  • Families dealing with secondary trauma, stress, or communication issues

No matter your branch, background, or belief system, you are welcome here.

What Makes Our Veterans Therapy Different

At Cornerstone Health, we offer more than just generic counseling. Our community-based counseling center is rooted in the belief that healing comes from connection, trust, and personalized care. We provide confidential therapy that meets you where you are—whether that’s in person or through telehealth services.

Here’s what sets us apart:

  • Trauma-informed individual therapy for combat veterans, trauma survivors, and those navigating military sexual trauma
  • Compassionate marriage counseling and family support for military families
  • Help with managing posttraumatic stress disorder, traumatic stress disorder PTSD, depression, anxiety, and substance use
  • Guidance for transitioning service members re-entering civilian life
  • Support for National Guard and Reservists navigating dual civilian-military roles
  • Collaborative care with other medical professionals for integrated health care services

We honor all discharge statuses, serve all branches, and tailor your treatment plan to fit your specific needs.

Not Just Services—A Sense of Belonging

We know that asking for help can be hard, especially when you’re used to being the one others rely on. But healing isn’t something you have to do alone. Whether you’re accessing online counseling from home, seeking peer support from fellow veterans, or coming in for follow-up care, our goal is to connect veterans to the tools, relationships, and mental health services they need to thrive.

Through evidence-based treatments like CBT, EMDR, and mindfulness, we support you in managing symptoms, building coping skills, and reconnecting to yourself and others.

And if you’re already receiving care through a VA facility or local VA, our team can work alongside your VA mental health provider or help you understand your insurance coverage and other services that may be available.

Compassionate, Christ-Inspired Care

While we are faith-informed in our mission, our doors are open to everyone, regardless of religious background or belief. Our care is based on evidence-based practices, real relationships, and the kind of compassion that sees each person’s dignity and worth.

We collaborate closely across disciplines—including social workers, primary care providers, and therapists—to ensure that your mental health problems don’t get treated in isolation, but as part of a complete picture of your well-being.

You’ve Had Our Backs—Now Let Us Have Yours

If you’re a veteran, service member, or part of a military family, we want you to know: help is here, and healing is real.

Whether you’re seeking mental health care for the first time, looking for readjustment counseling, or simply feeling like something’s off, we invite you to take that first step. You’ve spent years showing up for others—now it’s time to show up for yourself.

Let Cornerstone Health be your next mission: one of healing, connection, and hope. You’ve taken care of others. Now it’s time to take care of you. Contact us today.
