HERE ARE SOME OF THE THINGS WE TALKED ABOUT:
Anthony Hassan talks about his 30 years of experience in the military, focusing on the mental health of active-duty service members. We discuss the unique problems military members and veterans face regarding mental health and why finding help isn’t easy.
We discussed the stigma around mental health specifically in the military and veteran communities and why it seems to be worse at times than in other communities.
Anthony explained what mental health care services are in place for veterans, and where the gaps exist today and how the Cohen Veteran Network was created to fill those gaps.
We talk about the workforce inside the clinics, the shortage of mental health workers in America, and how the Cohen Veterans Network fosters their network of clinicians on staff.
The Cohen Veterans Network is continually experimenting with new technological advances and cutting-edge treatments that they believe can help veterans with their mental health. The CVN platform has become an incubator or pilot partner of choice for many up-and-coming technologies serving the mental health space.
Anthony shares what the long-term goals are for the clinics and what is needed in terms of support to make those goals a reality.
