At PsychSolutions, we are proud to support Canadian veterans, former Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) members, and their eligible families or survivors, through trauma informed and evidence based psychological care. Our clinic is an approved provider for Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC) and the Psychosocial Rehabilitation Services Program (PCVRS).
We understand that military and service related experiences can affect many areas of life, including emotional wellbeing, relationships, sleep, physical health, work, identity, and transition into civilian life. Our team works collaboratively with veterans to provide respectful, coordinated, and compassionate care focused on recovery, resilience, and long term wellbeing.
Our clinic offers in person services in Edmonton and virtual therapy across Alberta.
Mental Health Support for Veterans
Our therapists support veterans experiencing a wide range of concerns related to military or service experiences, including:
- Anxiety and panic symptoms
- Burnout and chronic fatigue
- Chronic pain and injury recovery
- Depression and low mood
- Difficulties transitioning to civilian life
- Grief and loss
- Operational Stress Injuries (OSI)
- Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
- Relationship and family stress
- Sleep difficulties and insomnia
- Work related stress and adjustment difficulties
We recognize that leaving military or service environments can involve significant changes in identity, routine, community, structure, and purpose. Therapy can help support this transition and strengthen coping, resilience, and overall wellbeing.

- If you are not yet approved, we can help guide you on next steps and speaking with your VAC Case Manager
- Once authorization is in place, we coordinate billing directly with VAC or PCVRS
Our administrative team helps reduce paperwork stress so you can focus on treatment and recovery.
What is the VAC Rehabilitation Program and PCVRS?
The Veterans Affairs Canada Rehabilitation Program helps veterans adjust to life after service when a service-related physical or mental health condition impacts functioning at home, in the community, or at work.
When approved for the Rehabilitation Program, veterans are referred by their Case Manager to the Psychosocial Rehabilitation Services Program (PCVRS). Through this program, veterans may access psychological and psychosocial supports to help improve quality of life and overall functioning.
The Rehabilitation Program helps to support:
- Adjustment to civilian life
- Community participation and relationships
- Daily functioning and independence
- Emotional and psychological wellbeing
- Long term health and life satisfaction
- Return to work or vocational goals
With your consent, our clinic collaborates with VAC Case Managers, rehabilitation specialists, physicians, and other healthcare providers to help ensure coordinated care and aligned treatment goals.
