WHAT WE DO

The military does not have the internal capacity to treat all of its mental health patients. It refers out those patients it cannot treat to a limited number of private providers outside of the military.

HSR is one of those few providers. With TRICARE telehealth therapy, we aim to treat as many service members and family members as we can without any money coming out of their pockets.

 

OUR IMPACT

New Patients Served: 171

Therapy sessions provided at no cost to patient : 2533

  • Ever snap, shut down, panic, or go numb before you can even think clearly?

That can be what people mean when they talk about **amygdala hijacking**.

The amygdala is part of the brain involved in detecting threat. When it reacts fast, your body can shift into survival mode before your more thoughtful, reasoning brain fully catches up.

It can look like:

* getting disproportionately upset
* feeling flooded during conflict
* freezing when stressed
* crying suddenly
* going into “just get through it” mode
* reacting first and understanding later

For military families, this can get amplified by chronic stress, uncertainty, separation, frequent moves, and always having to stay ready for the next thing.

This is not a character flaw.
It is often a stressed nervous system doing its job a little too aggressively.

The good news: with support and practice, people can learn to notice it sooner, slow it down, and respond with more choice.

  • Sometimes the week ends, but your nervous system does not.

You made the appointments.
Handled the logistics.
Got everybody where they needed to go.
Answered the texts.
Held it together.

And now it is Friday, and instead of feeling relieved, you just feel... depleted.

That does not mean you are doing it wrong.
It may mean you have been carrying too much for too long.

  • You do not have to wait for a full-blown crisis to get support.

You can reach out because you are exhausted.
Because you are carrying too much.
Because your nervous system has been on high alert for too long.
Because “functioning” is taking everything you have.

You do not have to prove that things are bad enough before getting help.
