| Purpose: |
|
The purpose of this study is to evaluate Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) for
deployment-related post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) that can be used by behavioral
health consultants working with Service Members in the primary care clinic. CBT is a
well-researched, very effective individual (one-to-one) treatment that is designed to help
people to directly deal with traumatic events they have suffered in the past, including
combat. Many Service Members prefer to see behavioral health providers in primary care
rather than the mental health clinic. The researchers hope to learn if a brief treatment for
PTSD in primary care can be just as useful as more traditional treatment given in the mental
health clinic. This study will enroll approximately 45 participants overall; with
approximately 30 participants at Wilford Hall Medical Center or Brooke Army Medical Center,
and 15 participants to be enrolled at the South Texas Veterans Health Care System over a
period of one year.
