About the Provider

Dr. Drexler is a clinician for the Emory Healthcare Veterans Program, a nationally recognized center of excellence for healing the invisible wounds of military service. The Emory Healthcare Veterans Program treats conditions such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), traumatic brain injury (TBI), military sexual trauma (MST), anxiety, and depression. Treatment is free and confidential for eligible post-9/11 veterans and service members, living anywhere in the United States, regardless of discharge status, deployment history, or length of service. The two-week Intensive Outpatient Program is offered in-person at our clinic in Atlanta, Georgia, or via telehealth in eligible states.
