Help Nik Heal: A Veteran’s Fight for Peace After War

About the Campaign

We’re reaching out to ask for your support for Nik, a U.S. Marine Corps veteran who served with honor and courage in Iraq and Afghanistan during 7 years of service, finishing with the rank of Sergeant. After returning home, Nik has continued to fight—this time, against severe, complex post-traumatic stress disorder (CPTSD).

Nik has tried numerous treatments through the VA and private providers, but the trauma she carries has not eased. Traditional approaches haven’t worked. Now, doctors are recommending ketamine therapy, nerve blocks, and EMDR therapy—treatments with a strong track record of helping trauma survivors but not fully covered by the VA or insurance.

What We’re Asking

We’re raising $4,000 to help Nik access this care. Funds will cover:
• Ketamine therapy sessions
• EMDR trauma therapy
• Nerve blocks for PTSD-related symptoms
• Travel and basic living expenses during treatment

Why It Matters

Nik served our country with bravery. She came home carrying invisible wounds that affect her sleep, her relationships, and her daily life. CPTSD has taken a serious toll, and without the right treatment, her future remains uncertain.

This care may finally give Nik the chance to heal—not just survive, but truly live.

How You Can Help

Every dollar helps bring Nik closer to the help she urgently needs. Whether you can give $10 or $100, your donation matters. And if you can’t give, please consider sharing this campaign to help us reach more people.

Let’s stand by Nik the way she stood for us.


Thank you for your compassion, generosity, and support.
