Our Integrative Approach
Avalon’s comprehensive approach is vital in transforming lives. Trauma affects every aspect of an individual’s life, and each person’s experience is unique. Avalon’s integrated care model coordinates care from clinicians who provide personalized support.
You will receive an accurate and individual assessment before beginning care.
Once your needs are identified, a care plan and location will be discussed by a peer support coordinator.
Apply the tools you have been given and turn struggle into strength and thrive in the aftermath of trauma.
Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)
100 hours of personalized care delivered over three weeks, supported by an integrated and interdisciplinary clinical team. Each client leaves with a long-term care plan and the tools to move forward.
The care I received didn’t just help me understand and start the recovery process. You’re a whole body — a whole person — in this program. They put you on the path to addressing all the issues, not just injuries directly related to the TBI.

Post-traumatic Stress
Avalon alliance partners have built programs based on the science of posttraumatic growth. We provide non-clinical training program in a military relevant setting, designed and provided by peers.
That day in the horse barn where I shared my three guiding principles – purpose, balance, and connection, was a pivotal transition point in my life, refocusing me on what I lost when I left the military. Serving others is my purpose, but I must first focus on ‘struggling well’ and serving myself by focusing on my family, my character, and my beliefs.

Substance Abuse
Avalon’s alliance of substance abuse treatment centers helps you heal with among your brothers and sisters, not at a hospital or impersonal health clinic. We’ve designed our treatment centers to be the opposite of a sterile-feeling institution. You or your loved ones have suffered enough. Healing at our center should ultimately be an uplifting, positive, and relieving experience. It’s not easy, but it’s worth it. That’s what we’ve created for our warriors.
My career with the US Army was unfortunately cut short due to my own neglect of caring for my body and mind after suffering from a TBI. I went through many years after my discharge blaming others, the military, and my own sense of worth. I am currently in week 3 out of a 42 day substance abuse treatment program. So far, I have learned to manage my emotions and trauma through a series of very helpful clinicians and workshops.

Integrative Approach
Trauma impacts every aspect of a person’s life, and no two healing journeys are alike.
Our comprehensive care model unites expert clinicians and peer mentors to address TBI, PTS, and substance use disorders. These challenges are deeply complex, and their symptoms often overlap, so we take an integrated, multidisciplinary approach to deliver life-changing outcomes. This ensures each client receives individualized treatments, training, and support to heal their invisible wounds of service and achieve lasting recovery.
Our National Alliance
Avalon’s alliance partners are staffed by experts who are highly trained, deeply committed, and who get it. Many of these men and women have walked the same path and now dedicate their lives to guiding others forward.

Impact Stories
Now that I have completed the program, my life is completely different. My wife tells me regularly now that the old me is back, and I am finally able to show patience to my kids.
Steven
U.S. Army Veteran
The person I know myself to be deep down inside has been hiding inside of a shell that was built to protect my emotions. I was missing out on life. That changed with Avalon's support.

U.S. Army Veteran
Avalon gave me an opportunity at a new life. Warriors Heart is so much more than just a rehab facility. From my first phone call to my first days at the facility, everyone told me, “Welcome Home.”
