Summary

The purpose of this research study is to test the effectiveness of a new telephone counseling program for employed Veterans with depression called the Veterans Work and Health Initiative (V-WHI) using the Be Well at Work (BWAW) intervention. 250 participants will be recruited and randomly assigned to one of two groups: the V-WHI experimental group or usual mental health care. The V-WHI counselors will address mental health and job-related issues that interfere with working. This counseling is provided solely over the phone with sessions every 2 weeks for 4 months (eight sessions total). At 8 months post-baseline, the V-WHI group is provided with a booster session. Participants in both groups are administered follow-up questionnaires at two time-points: month four and month nine.
