A Unique, Nationally Recognized Military and First Responders Treatment Program
This program is specifically designed for military veterans, police officers, corrections officers, firefighters, paramedics, and other emergency personnel to help them cope with the problems incurred by job stress and chemical dependency.
This program is led by a military veteran and former first responder who is also a Master’s level therapist. He designed this program to help our veterans and first responders overcome the underlying issues that lead to addiction.
These brave men and women are subject to a level of physical, emotional, and mental stress unlike anyone else. As their jobs have become even more demanding, stress levels have increased to the point where they experience some of the country’s highest rates of substance abuse, depression, and suicide. Our program has successfully treated hundreds of veterans and first responders nationwide, setting them on the path to a healthy, sober life.
We Specialize in Treating Behavioral Health Challenges
Our program has an integrated treatment model to help veterans and first responders with co-occurring mental health disorders and substance use disorders. We help our clients improve their physical, mental, and emotional wellness in order for them to heal and repair their lives.

Your environment can play an important part in your recovery.
From the warm, tropical environment of our Delray Beach location, to the calm, serene country surroundings at Mending Fences, each facility will play an integral part in the treatment and beginning stages of recovery for our clients.
Our flagship treatment center opened its doors in 2007 in Delray Beach, Florida, and has been successfully treating hundreds of veterans and first responders ever since. The Help For Our Heroes program provides a safe place for the brave men and women whose jobs have put them under an intense level of stress that few people can understand.
Located on 400+ acres in beautiful northern Florida, we help veterans and first responders who experience traumas such as PTSD, combat trauma, grief and loss, and MST. Transformations at Mending Fences also offers equine-assisted psychotherapy, allowing the clients to be involved with horses in order to promote positive physical and mental health.
Adventure Therapy/Activities
Physical activity can help improve mental health by reducing anxiety, depression, and negative mood. Our clients participate in activities such as virtual runs, yoga, meditation, breath work and adventure therapy, which includes things such as kayaking and paddle-boarding.

Don’t Suffer in Silence
For the men and women who dedicate their lives to helping others, we are here to help you.
Getting to Transformations I realized I’m not alone and these folks right here are in the trenches with me and I do need help and it’s a judge-free zone. I learned that getting help is not a weakness, it’s actually a strength.
– Dave V., Help For Our Heroes Alumnus
There is a lot of life to be lived, that it’s okay to reach out for help, and that’s just what I did. We are all going through the same thing and we can help each other through this.
– Jake H., Help For Our Heroes Alumnus
I didn’t even know what I was doing was wrong. All I know is I was just looking for my next drink. I didn’t have the tools to help myself. When I got to Transformations I was broken, and by the grace of God, this program and the people in it helped me…we helped each other.
– Joey R., Help For Our Heroes Alumnus
Sometimes asking for help can be seen as weak, but it’s really about loving yourself and setting your pride aside. And Transformations helped me do that.
– Tsuji C., Help For Our Heroes Alumna
Transformations saved my life multiple times. I was fortunate enough to receive treatment at TTC through the VA, and I can’t speak highly enough of the Help For Our Heroes program, the staff, and the level of care at this establishment. If it weren’t for the caring and supportive staff, I would not be here.
