Dr. Jody Bremer, family therapist, visits again to continue her discussion about being comfortable seeking out a therapist, the benefits of visiting a therapist, and why it may be the best choice for you!
Today we will address the family dynamic when their military loved one is being deployed.
Jody appreciates all she has in life: "I have experienced a vast array of life's challenges, including a life-threatening childhood illness, a stint as a Marine Corps wife, mother to two fabulous children who, thankfully, are well into and almost past their teen years, and completing my Master's Degree a full 20 years after graduating from high school.

Stephen Boyd served on active duty in the US Army from 1967 to 1970. He served in Korea in 1968 and Viet Nam from 1969 to 1970. He has numerous awards and decorations for his military service.
Steve received his Associates degree in Biology, recently returned to receive his Bachelor of Science degree in 2007 and is currently is finalizing his PMP certification. You're never too old for education, he says.
His new experience dealing with the VA came about because of a layoff in 2010. Being without medical coverage, Steve's wife prompted him into investigating the benefits the VA could offer. What a pleasant surprise he had in discovering a wealth of support at the Manchester, NH VA facility.
He will be featured on Military Mom Talk Radio periodically to discuss veteran resources and VA benefits.
