Free PTSD Healing Sessions for NYC Veterans (Virtual)
Backpacks For Life is proud to share an incredible healing opportunity for veterans through Operation Warrior Shield.
In partnership with The Research and Recognition Project and Post Traumatic Training Institute, they are offering free PTSD healing sessions for veterans in 2026—available virtually for your convenience.
About the Program
These sessions use the Reconsolidating of Traumatic Memories Protocol™ (RTM), a groundbreaking neurological approach designed to help veterans process and move beyond traumatic experiences.
The RTM Protocol™ is typically delivered over three to four 90-minute sessions in a supportive, therapeutic setting.
How It Works
RTM focuses on separating the emotional response from traumatic memories through a guided, relaxed re-imagining process. Veterans are supported in safely revisiting memories without reliving the fear, allowing the brain to “recode” the experience.
Following the sessions, many participants report:
- Relief from intrusive thoughts
- Reduced or eliminated nightmares and flashbacks
- No longer feeling stuck in past traumatic events
- Flexible & Accessible
Sessions are:
- Completely free of charge
- Available virtually (with in-person options if preferred)
- Reclaim Your Peace
If you or a veteran you know could benefit from this program, we encourage you to learn more and sign up.
