The Morgantown Vet Center offers bereavement counseling and support to:

• The families of Veterans who were receiving Vet Center services at the time of the Veteran's death

We can also connect you to the Veterans Benefits Administration (VBA) and the National Cemetery Administration (NCA) for assistance with burial and survivor services. 

At the Morgantown Vet Center, we offer individual and group counseling. We also provide referral services to appropriate resources in our community.

Care at our center includes:

• One-on-one hour-long counseling sessions targeted at your individual needs
• Group counseling for Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans, Vietnam Veterans, Spouses/Significant Others, and more

Evidence-based therapies such as:

• Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I)
• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
• Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)
