It is the mission, duty and purpose of The Pink Berets to address, educate, coordinate, and provide aid and relief to active duty women of the United States Armed Forces and Veterans seeking assistance with invisible injuries such as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Military Sexual Trauma and Combat Trauma Stress on a local and national level.
Our goals and commitment are based solely upon helping women who have been afflicted with the devastating effects of PTSD, MST and CTS and address their symptoms before it progresses to homelessness, unemployment, and suicide. If left unaddressed it can have a significant impact on their lives and their families.
To offer a holistic approach to the treatment, we offer several experiential therapy options in addition to the more traditional therapeutic interventions.
Examples of these therapies include the following:
- Yoga therapy
- Art therapy
- Customized Crossfit Therapy Specifically for The Pink Berets
- Hiking/Kayaking/Outdoor Adventuring

The Catalyst is a holistic therapeutic program dedicated to providing all Military Women with the Tools; Techniques; Personal and Professional Strategies needed for building fulfilling and successful Military/post-military/civilian lives.
The Catalyst program examines the traumatic event and subsequent development of post-traumatic stress disorder. We learn to recognize the underlying emotional pain that fuels specific behaviors. We begin the process of healing these emotions through a combination of clinical therapy, holistic approaches, and experiential modalities. We understand that trauma and PTSD treatment is visceral, sensory, and cellular. Our team focuses on building trust, creating a safe environment, and steps towards recovery with the involvement of the family or caregiver. Our team is specifically trained in handling participants who suffer from trauma and PTSD.
The complexity of PTSD and existence of additional symptoms calls for special resources, a variety of treatment options, frequent monitoring, and support offered by The Catalyst program. We provide these services to ensure you receive the best treatment possible in a warm, nurturing environment. A therapeutic retreat program such as The Catalyst is one of the most effective forms of intervention available, as it allows you the opportunity to work through your problems while leaving the stress of your environment to focus on what truly matters : RECOVERY.
