Gengler recognized that there was a dire need for a really new approach when it came to dealing with the mental health needs of veterans, and in response he developed something truly innovative.

With that said, this helps reduce the stigma associated with mental health treatment as it removes the risk of being identified or recognized outside of treatment.
