The Pro Bono For Soldiers website offers you qualified practitioners in the wellness field who have been working in their chosen modalities for at least 5 years and who have an established formal presence.
You may also look for the PBFS logo displayed at websites or offices of these participating practitioners.
Each PBFS practitioner will be open to working with you for up to 3 sessions.
You are encouraged to try as many different modalities of work as you wish and also to work with practitioners of the same type of modality if you find that type of facilitation helpful for you.
What If I Like one Particular Practitioner?
If you find a good fit with one practitioner, and 3 sessions have been given, we encourage you to talk with the practitioner to work out what can come next.
There are several things to keep in mind:
1. Practitioners are volunteering to work 2 to 3 pro bono sessions per month - whatever will fit into their schedule.
2. They need to work with all the soldiers who contact them - thus there may be a waiting list.
Expect that each practitioner will have their own rules of what they will do next.
If they do not have other soldiers waiting for their work, they will be amenable to working with you on a complimentary basis after the initital 3 sessions have concluded.
If they do have a waiting list, the PBFS program encourages them to offer you their work at a very reduced rate should you wish to work that way. It is entirely up to you and they to work out the next step.
Remember that you are free to contact another practitioner and they will also give you up to 3 free (pro bono) sessions.
You are also encouraged to go outside this website and become an ongoing client with a practitioner whom you like. We at PBFS will be exceptionally pleased to have brought you the initial awareness of this healing avenue.
We wish you only the best!
There are No Contracts, Implied or Otherwise and Absolute Confidentiality
You are free ....free to peruse the page of Services and schedule a session with the facilitator(s) of your choice. We are private facilitators who are not connected with the military - your sessions will not be disclosed.
We ask only that you be forthcoming on needs and health matters so that we can serve you better.
We do reserve the right to steer you to another modality or pass on a session if we feel we cannot do the job you need.
We are not doctors and cannot treat you, diagnose or prescribe anything for you.
PBFS was created to provide a bridge between facilitators of various holistic modalities and you.
This bridge was built for you.
You are the one who will make decisions about whom you wish to work with.
If you feel uncomfortable to talk about your experiences, there are plenty of modalities to choose from where you will not need to speak. The bodywork in particular can be a wonderful gateway.
If you are uncomfortable to leave your home, choose from any of the remote practitioners and work via phone.
Remember, though you may not have heard of this type of work before, it has been aiding many for decades - and we are there to aid you as well.
We will bring our experience as listeners on deeper levels to you so that you can walk through your healing process faster.
All the PBFS facilitators are in this industry because we have experienced firsthand the benefit of the work we do - allow us to help you discover what we have found!
