About this facility
Chattanooga VA Clinic supports veterans facing PTSD, depression, anxiety, addiction, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia. They provide outpatient care that includes both general and specialized services. With same-day mental health support available, veterans can get help quickly and easily during times of stress or emotional crisis.
The clinic offers individual and group therapy to help veterans manage trauma, grief, anger, and other emotional challenges. These therapies build coping skills, improve emotional well-being, and support stronger relationships. Each treatment plan is tailored to fit the veteran’s needs, making care both effective and personal.
Veterans can access 24/7 help through the Veterans Crisis Line and work with local suicide prevention coordinators. The clinic also provides safety resources like gun locks and follow-up care for those in crisis. Partnerships with community organizations ensure that veterans receive support beyond the clinic walls.
