Abstract

Evidence suggests that student veterans have higher psychological distress than their peers. However, they experience barriers to seeking and accessing care. This pilot study explored utilizing short-term Interpersonal Psychotherapy as an engagement and treatment strategy. Preliminary findings suggest it is a promising symptom reduction strategy for this population.
