As we spend today in memorial, honoring U.S. military personnel who died while serving in the United States Armed Forces and for those who lost parts of themselves serving our nation, we are very thankful for House Representative Brian Mast and the veterans of this community that have taken steps to bring attention to this serious problem within the VA.
More than 70 veterans, relatives and medical providers contacted Florida Rep. Brian Mast to say the Department of Veterans Affairs cut off access to community care.

The SHEEPDOG Program is a licensed and credentialed counseling program for both mental health and substance abuse. We offer a Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) and an Intensive Out Patient (IOP) Program created specifically for Veterans, Federal and State Law Enforcement Officers, and First Responders. This group is unique and only open those who meet these prerequisites or those who get special approval by the program director.
This program is designed to provide innovative treatment approaches utilizing a unique take on peer reviewed and empirically proven interventions. The treatment is provided by professionals who are committed to understanding the character, sacrifices, and motivation of our Veterans, Law Enforcement Officers, and First Responders.
Our treatment approach is led and adapted by our program director, who is a retired Force Reconnaissance Marine and Marine Raider from Marine Special Operations Command (MARSOC).
The Sheepdog program provides a comprehensive, tailor made program customized for each individual based off their presenting issues. We believe that there is never a generic predetermined program that should be blanketed across every client. Every case is reviewed by the program director, medical director, and the FCC Chief of Clinical Operations to provide the most direct and efficient approach to addressing each clients concerns. The program is fully capable of addressing mental health, behavioral health, TBI, stress management, physical trauma, emotional trauma, and addiction issues.
The Florida Counseling Centers clinical team includes a Psychiatrist, Psychologists, Mental Health Counselors, a Marriage and Family Therapist, Social Workers, a Chiropractor, a Nutritionist, a Massage Therapist, and a Yoga Instructor.
This complex approach has found amazing efficiency for assisting clients in processing and resolving issues related to their time in service, with their family and community, and as a private citizen managing the stressors of life. This program utilizes a matchless combination of providers under one roof with the personal feel of a private practice. Florida Counseling Centers is also partnered with Journey Pure, who is one of the most successful providers of addiction treatment facilities across the nation.
The Sheepdog Program is trademarked by C.A.L.M. in the Storm INC and is provided through Florida Counseling Centers by Journeypure (FCC).
