Licensed acupuncturist, Dia Vickery PhD(Theology), is a registered
alternative health provider with Give an Hour
Tarzana, CA 8-31-2012 Dia
Vickery, PhD (Theology), Licensed
Acupuncturist
is registered
as a part of the growing number of alternative health care providers
working with
Give an Hour, the nonprofit organisation
that provides free mental health services to U.S. military personnel and
families affected by the current conflicts in Iran and
Afghanastan.
Give an Hour™ is a nonprofit 501(c)(3),
founded in September 2005 by Dr. Barbara Van
Dahlen, a psychologist in
the Washington, D.C., area. The organization’s mission is to develop
national networks of volunteers capable of responding to both acute and
chronic conditions that arise within our society.
In addition to their main mission of providing
free mental health services, Give an Hour also maintains a list of other
health professionals who are volunteering their services. Dr.
Vickery is pleased
to be included in
this group.
"Obviously, I'd be thrilled if there was no
need for an organisation like Give an Hour, but the reality is we have
service-men and -women coming home with
a wide variety of health
concerns. As soon as I heard about Give an Hour, I contacted them to
see if they had a registry for non-mental health providers and I'm
thrilled to say they do. I know the power of acupuncture and
oriental medicine can reach many of the health concerns our vets are
facing and I believe the services
should be
available to them."
To schedule a Give an Hour session with Dr Vickery please contact the
clinic directly.
