ABOUT US
The mission of Strength in Support is to provide mental health services to military personnel, veterans and their families, including individual and family therapy, mentorship and workshops, to address all areas of our heroes’ well-being.
Since 2012, our team has succeeded in understanding the needs of our veteran community and creating a holistic method to serve those who served U.S.
Strength in Support’s (a 501c3) founding board members have served veterans and their families in Southern California for decades through their private clinical practices and informal mentoring.
Our vision is for every service man, service woman, veteran and their family members to have the mental health services, resources and support that they earned, deserve and need. These services will be delivered in a timely manner in an environment based on respect, collaboration and kindness that serves the whole person, the whole family and the whole community.
