Telemental Health and Cognitive Processing Therapy for Female Veterans With Military-related PTSD
Completed · Phase 3
Conditions studied: Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
In brief
The immediate objective of this project is to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of a telemental health modality (video-teleconferencing) for providing an evidence-based group intervention to female rural veterans, Reservists, National Guardsmen, and civilians suffering with PTSD. This study is an expansion, seeking to add a treatment arm of women, to an already CDMRP-funded study that completed in July 2014 treating male combat veterans with military-related PTSD. The long-term objective of this project is to disseminate an empirically sound TMH PTSD protocol for male and female veterans, Reserve and Guard that will extend the use of CPT to remote rural sites. It is hypothesized that using VTC, will be as effective as the in-person mode of service delivery for providing CPT.
