The Steven A. Cohen Military Family Clinic at Metrocare provides quality, accessible, and comprehensive mental health care to post-9/11 veterans, active-duty service members, and their families. The clinic focuses on reducing barriers to care by offering telehealth appointments, childcare, and extended hours.
The clinic specializes in evidence-based treatments for mental health challenges related to military service, such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, and anxiety. Care is available regardless of discharge status, role while in uniform, combat experience, ability to pay, or insurance. The Cohen Clinic at Metrocare also connects veteran and military families to community resources and services through its case management services and connecting clients to community resources.
The Cohen Clinic staff understands the unique situations faced by veterans and military families during the different seasons of their service. Many of our staff members and clinicians are veterans or military family members who understand the unique situations that their clients experience because of their military connection.
Mental health care should be available to everyone, and your support of the Cohen Clinic makes it possible to continue expanding care for our entire military community.
At Metrocare, we serve our neighbors with developmental or mental health challenges by helping them find lives that are meaningful and satisfying.
Texas is home to nearly 1.5 million veterans, the largest veteran population in the country. With over 40% of veterans struggling with mental health or substance use, accessible mental health care is a growing and critical need (Texas Health & Human Services, 2024).
Additionally, a growing number of veterans identify with racial or ethnic minority populations and many are women or gender-diverse (Pew Research Center, 2023).
The Cohen Clinic at Metrocare is able to deliver mental health care through a holistic approach, offering childcare options and telehealth appointments to make it easier for clients to access high-quality care.
With your help, the Cohen Clinic can continue expanding staff to address the growing need for mental health care for veterans, active-duty service members, and military families.
