How do caregivers and culture help children heal from trauma?
If you’re caring for a child who has been through trauma, you’ve probably heard a lot about therapy, treatment plans, and professional support. And those things all matter. But you as a caregiver play an important role. The relationship you’re building, the safety you’re creating, and the patience you’re showing on the hardest days play…

This kind of feedback means everything. 💙
"He didn't talk at me or down to me. He made me feel like the priority and talked to me like a person — not a client or a paycheck."
That's exactly the experience every person deserves when they take the brave step of reaching out for support. So proud of the care our staff bring to every session.
If you've been hesitant to try counseling because of past experiences — we hear you. It doesn't have to feel that way. 🙏

As you gather with friends and family this Memorial Day weekend, a reminder to be safe, and be kind.
Many think of Memorial Day as the start of summer fun. Don't lose sight of the meaning of the day: to honor and remember those who have died in military service. Memorial Day may be an emotional holiday for some. For others, mental health struggles are an on-going part of life.
This week, our team Steven A. Cohen Military Family Clinic at Alaska Behavioral Health has been supporting opportunities for connection, recreation, and community for Alaska's active duty military members and families. These can play a huge role in resilience and overall well-being for service members.
Our clinics will be closed on Monday for the Memorial Day holiday.
Help is always available! Call 988 to be connected to local resources.
