I am a veteran too and using the VA system. In the past had no difficulty getting therapy. However I thought it was my clinic that had the therapy problems for going to short term therapy styles and pushing groups instead of individual therapy the past few years. Now I am wondering if it's the whole VA system that's screwed up. Not everyone does well with short term therapy. Once again, are they trying to make a "one size fits everybody" mentality???? I have been really angry at my clinic over this therapy limitation stuff.

Now I may be very angry at the VA system. Other than this, and for the past approximately 4 years I have had excellent care from the VA.

I don't know what to advise you. Maybe push for VA paid therapy outside of the VA? I forget what program that is called.
