I have very much enjoyed serving those who have served us.  I have worked with military service members in my office for many years, overseas on my MFLC assignments, and was part of a group of therapists who brought a branch of the Soldiers Project to Sacramento.  I have worked with other agencies as well as Tri-Care and the VA.
