Morehead City VA Clinic

Tucked within the Durham VA Health Care System, their community-based outpatient clinic located in Morehead City, North Carolina serves as a lifeline for veterans navigating mental and emotional health challenges. Care isn’t one-size-fits-all; instead, the focus is on each individual’s journey—drawing from evidence-based treatments tailored to support recovery and resilience. Prioritising individualised care and using evidence-based treatments, services are tailored to promote recovery and strengthen resilience.
The clinic steps in with a wide range of therapeutic options designed to meet veterans where they are. For individuals grappling with military sexual trauma, therapies like interpersonal therapy (IPT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) aim to strengthen emotional coping skills and lay the foundation for lasting healing. Veterans dealing with post-traumatic stress disorder are supported through treatments such as cognitive processing therapy (CPT) and prolonged exposure (PE) that help reduce the effects of trauma, or the weight of unspoken experiences, and rebuild a sense of safety. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is used to battle depression or anxiety by shifting negative thoughts and improving daily functioning.. Substance use struggles are addressed through both individual and group counseling, and reinforced by resources for relapse prevention.
With their trauma-informed care philosophy, the staff recognizes how past trauma can shape someone’s healing journey, and they respond with understanding. Using the Patient Aligned Care Team (PACT) model, veterans are paired with dedicated care teams who work with them to build customized treatment plans. This comprehensive care also provides on-site medical support, making it easier to address both physical and psychological health in one location.
