Too many Veterans fight their hardest battles after coming home. 💚
In this segment, Iraq War Veteran Wade Pendley shares how long it took him to finally receive the care he needed — a reality faced by far too many.
Over 50% of Veterans went without proper mental health support in the last year. That’s not acceptable.
At Avesta, we believe no one who’s served their country should have to struggle alone. We’re working to change that — one Veteran at a time. 🇺🇸

Ever wonder how advanced mental health treatments actually work? 🤔💭
Here’s the science behind one innovative approach:
💡 It helps the brain reconnect, rebuild, and reset — supporting new neural growth and improving communication between regions that regulate mood, focus, and emotion.
By enhancing neuroplasticity (your brain’s ability to change and adapt), patients often find it easier to move forward in therapy and daily life — feeling less stuck and more balanced. 🌿
