Summary

It is common for Veterans with injuries, illnesses, or physical disabilities to experience depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), chronic pain, and other concerns. They may also have goals like becoming happier or better able to cope with challenges that life brings. The purpose of this research study is to learn whether Veterans like and benefit from a 5-week, group-based positive psychology program aimed at improving mental health, resilience, well-being, and quality of life. Participants will be asked to complete several assessments (surveys/interviews) over the course of the study that are not considered part of standard care. Additionally, participants will be asked to participate in a focus group at the end of the study to provide feedback about their experiences in the group.

Resilience and Well-Being Program

The Resilience and Well-Being Program is offered through VA Puget Sound Rehabilitation Care Services as part of standard clinical care offerings. The program includes five (5) positive psychology group sessions once a week for five weeks. Participants will use strengths-based strategies, narrative strategies, and prospective strategies to learn ways to deal with stressful life challenges and improve their mental health and well-being. Each participant will be given a brief rating sheet at the end of each session to fill out. The rating sheet will ask participants to rate different aspects of the session (e.g., how helpful or interesting the session was to the participant), if home practice activities were assigned, whether the participant completed the home practice assignment, as well as feedback to improve that session.
