Military life can leave invisible wounds. Combat exposure, high stress, and repeated deployments can create emotional and psychological strain. Over time, these experiences can lead to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, anxiety, or chronic pain. For some veterans, alcohol or drug use becomes a way to cope with these difficult memories and emotions.
At The Carter Treatment Center, we understand the complex connection between trauma and substance use. That’s why our program combines addiction treatment, mental health care, and trauma-focused therapy into one integrated approach. You’ll work with professionals who understand both the challenges of military service and the process of long-term recovery.
Our program isn’t just a standard addiction treatment track. It’s designed specifically for veterans. We build a sense of trust, respect, and belonging from day one. We use evidence-based therapies that help veterans manage trauma while building coping skills for daily life.
We focus on:
You’ll work with licensed therapists who are trained in trauma-informed care and have experience treating service members. Whether you’re struggling with substances, depression, or anxiety, we help you find balance again.
Our veterans treatment program provides support for a range of emotional and behavioral challenges often connected to military service, including:
Each of these challenges is treated with compassion and skill. You don’t have to carry them alone or push them down anymore.
You’ll begin with a confidential assessment to understand your needs and goals. From there, our team creates a personalized plan that includes a mix of clinical therapy, peer support, and holistic healing.
Your treatment plan may include:
Our goal is to help you feel safe, understood, and equipped with tools that truly work for your life outside of treatment.
Recovery is about more than quitting substances. It’s about rediscovering your strength, purpose, and peace of mind. Our veterans treatment program gives you the space and structure to do exactly that. Through therapy, community, and personal growth, you’ll learn how to manage stress, rebuild relationships, and live with greater confidence and stability.
Every veteran’s journey looks different, which is why we offer several levels of care to meet you where you are:
These levels of care work together to support your recovery over time. You may start with more structure in PHP, then transition to IOP or OP as you gain confidence and stability. Each phase is guided by experienced clinicians who understand military culture and the unique challenges that come with returning to civilian life.
Through treatment, you can:
You’ve already shown courage in your service. Now, it’s time to use that same strength to heal, grow, and build a future that honors both your past and your potential.
Veterans face distinct risks for substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions.
The role of veterans treatment programs in helping service members address behavioral health issues is obvious, and the need for more supportive initiatives is clear.
