Summary
A program development and evaluation study with a sample of Marine Service Members assessed the initial clinical feasibility of adaptive disclosure (AD), a new intervention developed to address combat stress injuries in Active Duty Service members. AD is a comparatively short-term therapy mode designed specifically for Active Duty Service members recovering from combat related trauma. Initial findings indicate that brief, early interventions such as AD can be effective in treating combat and operational stress injuries among Active Duty Service members preparing for potential redeployment.
