Veterans face unique challenges—during active service and long after returning home. From visible wounds to unseen psychological injuries, the impact of military service can be profound and long-lasting.

At New Spirit Recovery, we provide dedicated mental health and addiction treatment services for veterans in Los Angeles. As a proud member of VACCN and TriWest, we are authorized to offer care through the VA Community Care Network, making treatment more accessible for those who have served our country.

If you or a veteran you love is struggling with mental health issues, substance use, or emotional challenges related to service, we want to help.

Call us today at (424) 317-9319 or contact us online to learn more about how we can support your journey to healing.

Understanding the Mental Health Crisis Among Veterans

Mental health conditions affect a significant percentage of U.S. veterans. According to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs:

More than 30% of veterans who served in Iraq or Afghanistan experience PTSD.
Roughly 11-20% of veterans from any given year of service report symptoms of major depression or anxiety.
Suicide rates among veterans are 1.5x higher than those of non-veteran adults.

Many veterans silently battle these conditions due to stigma, lack of resources, or barriers in accessing care. At New Spirit Recovery, we’re changing that.

Mental Health Services for Veterans

Our veteran-focused treatment programs address a wide range of service-related mental health issues, including:

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). PTSD is one of the most common mental health conditions among veterans, often triggered by combat, military sexual trauma (MST), or other traumatic service experiences. We offer trauma-informed care, EMDR therapy, and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to help veterans process trauma and reduce the severity of symptoms.
Anxiety Disorders. Chronic hypervigilance, panic attacks, and social isolation are common among veterans experiencing anxiety. Our team uses exposure therapy, DBT, and mindfulness-based stress reduction techniques to help veterans manage anxiety in everyday life.
Depression. Many veterans struggle with depression after leaving the structure and purpose of military life. We offer individual and group therapy, psychiatric support, medication management, and lifestyle-focused interventions to combat hopelessness and restore emotional health.
Bipolar Disorder. Veterans experiencing extreme mood shifts, impulsivity, or energy imbalances receive customized treatment plans that may include psychiatric support, mood stabilizing medications, and integrated therapy.
Eating Disorders. Issues such as binge eating, body dysmorphia, and food restriction are often overlooked in military populations. We offer nutritional counseling, therapy for underlying trauma, and body-image work as part of our whole-person recovery model.
Military-Related Trauma. From combat exposure to sexual trauma in the military, we provide safe, judgment-free spaces where veterans can process trauma, regain trust, and rebuild.

Addiction & Substance Use Disorder Treatment for Veterans

Many veterans turn to substances to numb emotional pain, manage sleep issues, or escape psychological distress. According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse:

Over 10% of veterans have a diagnosed substance use disorder (SUD).
1 in 3 veterans seeking SUD treatment also has PTSD.

At New Spirit Recovery, our evidence-based addiction treatment programs address both substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions in an integrated manner.

Alcohol Addiction – Alcohol is one of the most commonly misused substances among veterans. Our program offers medically supervised detox, trauma-informed therapy, relapse prevention education, and veteran-focused group support to help clients achieve and sustain sobriety.
Opioid Addiction – Many veterans are prescribed painkillers like hydrocodone or oxycodone during or after service, which can lead to dependence or heroin use. We provide comprehensive treatment for opioid use disorders, including detox, medication-assisted treatment (MAT), trauma therapy, and long-term recovery planning focused on veterans’ pain and mental health needs.
Drug, Sex, and Gambling Addiction – Whether struggling with stimulants, illicit drugs, or compulsive behaviors such as sex or gambling, we offer trauma-informed care, behavioral therapy, impulse regulation support, and holistic healing to restore control, dignity, and wellness.

Navigating the Transition to Civilian Life

Returning to civilian life after military service can feel disorienting. Veterans often face challenges that go beyond physical injuries or visible struggles, including:

Loss of structure and routine
Difficulty finding purpose outside of service
Challenges connecting with civilian peers
Unprocessed grief, trauma, or moral injury
Barriers to employment or housing
Feelings of isolation or disconnection from community

At New Spirit Recovery, we recognize how deeply these transitional challenges can impact mental health and lead to substance use. That’s why our programs go beyond clinical treatment. We help veterans rebuild purpose, establish daily structure, reconnect with their values, and gain tools to thrive in life after service.

Through peer support groups, life skills training, vocational assistance referrals, and emotional healing, we guide veterans through the emotional and practical aspects of reintegration—because recovery means building a life you’re proud to live.

The Rewired Approach & Whole-Person Veteran Care

Our veteran services are grounded in the Rewired treatment approach, a neuroscience-based philosophy developed by our co-founder, Erica Spiegelman. Rewired focuses on:

Recognizing self-destructive behavior patterns
Replacing them with positive, purpose-driven habits
Rebuilding identity, purpose, and resilience

The Rewired model integrates evidence-based therapy with self-awareness, mindfulness, emotional intelligence, and goal-setting to create a more empowered path to recovery.

Alongside this, veterans have access to:

Therapeutic Modalities including CBT, DBT, EMDR, expressive arts, and more
Fitness and Wellness Programs
Holistic Healing Services, including acupuncture, meditation, and sound healing
Nutritional Counseling and Meal Support
Luxury residential settings that promote comfort, dignity, and healing
Aftercare planning and sober living resources for veterans transitioning back into civilian life

Why Choose Us?

Access through VACCN and TriWest for streamlined VA coordination
Dual diagnosis treatment for mental health and addiction
24/7 medically supervised detox in a safe, respectful setting
Individualized treatment plans created with veteran input
Peer support and community programming with other veterans
