Many soldiers serving on the front lines are exposed to traumatic experiences that can leave lasting emotional and psychological wounds. For some, these experiences lead to Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), making it difficult to navigate everyday life.
In order to help eleviate the symptoms of PTSD, Yashar LaChayal sponsors therapy at Ruthi’s Farm. Established in 2012, the Resilience and Treatment Center has been providing life-changing care for over 14 years. Through equine-assisted therapy, nature-based healing, and a variety of complementary therapeutic approaches, the center helps combat veterans/soldiers and their families build resilience, process trauma, and move forward with hope. They offer individualized therapy, workshops and group programs.
Over the years, Ruthi’s Farm has helped countless soldiers reclaim their lives, with many inspiring stories of individuals who have overcome the debilitating effects of trauma and are able to return to their regular lives.
The Resilience and Treatment Center operates under the professional guidance of Professor David Roe, Ph.D.
Professor David Roe is a licensed clinical psychologist, Professor and chair of the Department of Community Mental Health, director of The Centre for Mental Health Research, Practice and Policy at the University of Haifa, Israel and affiliated Professor at Aalborg University, Denmark.
Drawing on his years of experience in research and clinical innovation, Professor Roeh helps ensure the center maintains the highest standards of care through evidence-based practices, a commitment to clinical excellence, and the ongoing evaluation of treatment outcomes.
