At AboutFace-USA, we provide comprehensive mental health support for veterans and their families through programs designed to foster resilience, connection, and personal growth. Our peer support programs include an in-person session for all veterans led by partners Keegan Merritt and Michael Brooks, as well as a virtual peer support meeting exclusively for women veterans. We also offer holistic healing classes led by Carolyn Agosta, which support mental, emotional, and physical well-being, and one-on-one counseling with trusted partners Ed Clark and Carla, providing personalized guidance tailored to each veteran’s needs. These services are led by experienced partners who bring compassion, expertise, and a commitment to helping veterans navigate life after service!
In-Person Peer Support Group for all Veterans
Keegan Merritt and Michael Brooks lead the in-person peer support group at the AFU Community Center, providing veterans a welcoming space to connect, share, and build resilience. Keegan, a Veteran Peer Counselor at AboutFace-USA, draws on his service in the U.S. Army and his work with the Georgia Department of Public Safety to guide veterans through post-service adjustment and mental health challenges, specializing in crisis intervention. Michael, a Georgia Law Enforcement Officer for nearly 20 years and an ICISF-certified PEER, offers deep expertise in suicide prevention, critical incident response, and peer support for both law enforcement and military personnel. His combat service in Operation Iraqi Freedom, combined with his law enforcement career, gives him unique insight into the challenges veterans face. Together, they provide compassionate, experienced guidance to those navigating life after service.
Holistic Healing
Holistic approaches have shown powerful benefits for the mental, emotional, and physical well-being of veterans and their families. Carolyn Agosta, a partner at AFU and leader of our Online Healing Program, brings over 30 years of experience in holistic healing tailored for veterans and their families. Her compassionate approach blends traditional and alternative therapies, helping individuals find peace, release trauma, and reconnect with their true selves. Veterans and their families can join Carolyn’s classes to experience expert guidance, community support, and transformative techniques that promote lasting well-being.
