Summary

This project is highly innovative as it will be the first to develop a mindfulness-based treatment as a first-line intervention tailored to target moral injury among combat-wounded veterans. In Study 1, the investigators recruited a small group of veterans to give feedback on the project. In Studies 2 and 3, the investigators will compare the newly developed mindfulness training to an equally intensive Educational Support condition. Further, if successful, this application may have the ability to adapted and extended to address common to other professions that experience moral injury.
