Together, We Heal: Reclaiming Strength with Shared Courage
Navigating the Fog of Everyday Life
You wake up already tired. Tasks feel heavy. The world seems distant, like you're watching it through thick fog. Some days you push through. Other days, the weight of it, the flashbacks, the tension, the feeling that you don’t belong anymore, pulls you down.
This isn’t weakness. It’s survival. And you're not broken.
At Safe Harbor Counseling, we understand this pain because we’ve lived it.
As a veteran who needed PTSD therapy and finally found it, I’m here to walk beside you—IGY6.
💬 "What You're Going Through Makes Sense"
Veterans often carry silent wounds:
- Flashbacks or hypervigilance
- Disconnection from family, purpose, or joy
- Trouble sleeping or relaxing
- Burnout from trying to “just handle it”
- Feeling like you’ve lost yourself in the transition to civilian life
You are not alone. These are valid responses to overwhelming, layered experiences. And healing is possible—on your terms.
👤 Meet Your Guide: Michael Mason M.Ed., LPC, NCC®
Veteran. Therapist. Survivor.
I’m not just a clinician; I’m one of you.
I’ve worn the uniform, sat with the guilt, and stared down the kind of pain that doesn’t go away just because you’re “home.” I also know how life-changing it can be to finally talk to someone who gets it.
At Safe Harbor Counseling of Missouri, I combine my military experience with trauma-informed Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy and mindfulness-based cognitive approaches to help veterans like you reclaim their sense of peace, purpose, and connection.
Together, we’ll build a therapy plan that feels grounded, respectful, and actionable—because healing doesn’t have to feel like another mission.

🗺️ Your Path Forward
Here’s what you can expect with veteran counseling at Safe Harbor:
✔ Start with Listening.
Your story matters. We’ll begin by hearing from your parts, those internal voices you may have pushed down for years. There’s no judgment here, only clarity and care.
✔ Tailored PTSD Therapy
We’ll create a clear, jargon-free plan using trauma-informed and mindfulness-based tools. These include stress-reduction practices, emotional regulation, reconnection techniques, and tools for managing military-to-civilian transitions.
✔ Ongoing Support
Whether it’s unburdening past trauma, reconnecting with loved ones, or sleeping through the night, we'll measure progress not by perfection, but by peace.
Finding Relief and Transformation
Lighten Your Load
Imagine starting your day feeling lighter, with fewer burdens from the past weighing you down. Each step in our PTSD therapy plan is designed to bring you closer to this reality, helping you find relief from the mental fog and transforming it into clarity and purpose. Through veterans counseling we'll focus on enhancing your resilience and rediscovering the strength that saw you through your service.
🛡️ Why Wait to Feel Better?
Safeguarding Your Progress
Without support, old patterns return. You withdraw. You isolate. You hurt.
But there’s another path. One that honors your service and your survival and helps you reconnect with the part of you that’s still fighting for hope.
🧭 You’ve already shown bravery. Now show yourself compassion.
