OUR Mission
Our core focus is helping active military, veterans and first responders suffering from depression and PTSD overcome their psychological obstacles and achieve exceptional post-traumatic growth.
Aurelius' world-class team consists of mental health professionals, naturopathic doctors, exercise and human performance specialists, and wilderness adventure guides who collaborate closely to offer the 12-week long Aurelius program. Our program is hands-on, confidential and cost-free. There is no stigma attached to attending the program and we operate it like a small, family-owned business.

A HEARTFELT THANK YOU TO OUR FOUNDING DONORS: THE FLAKE FAMILY AND DR. HETRICK
We are grateful to Anson and Katie Flake and Dr. Paul Hetrick for their generosity that propelled Aurelius into the realm of possibility. Their startup funding, and Anson being an original co-founder of the Aurelius idea, accompanied by the gift of the cutting-edge HydroWorx Underwater Treadmill, stands as a testament to their unwavering commitment to the well-being of veterans and active duty military and first responders. Anson and Katie Flake's philanthropic spirit, coupled with Dr. Hetrick's dedication to healthcare advancement, have not only significantly impacted Aurelius but have also paved the way for us to offer top-quality physical and mental health services to our clients.
The integration of the Hydroworx Underwater Treadmill, made possible by these exceptional donations, marks a giant leap forward in our ability to provide state-of-the-art services. Aurelius is now better equipped to nurture a community dedicated to holistic wellness.
With heartfelt thanks,
- The Aurelius Team
