Treatment of Chronic Anger and Aggression Following Military-Related Betrayal

Participants will undergo the study procedures described below. The preferred method of assessment and treatment is face-to-face in the STRONG STAR offices at Fort Cavazos. However, there may be circumstances when participants can complete the treatment through telebehavioral health (i.e., by phone or using a HIPAA-compliant video calling platform like Zoom). Decisions will be made on a case-by-case basis as issues arise for individuals (e.g., childcare) and in discussion with the treatment team. If participants do not have internet access they may need to complete assessments in person at the STRONG STAR office or by phone. * During the wait time: * Complete a 5-10 minute assessment twice per week (Monday/Thursday or Tuesday/Friday) to assess level of anger, aggression, and interactions with others since last assessment. * The assigned therapist will call participants once a week for a 10-minute, check-in. * At the end of participants' assigned wait time, they will complete an assessment of level of anger, aggression, interactions with others, mental, and physical health. * During treatment: * Begin treatment within 1 week of last wait time assessment. * Participate in 7-24 (average 14) one-hour bi-weekly (Monday/Thursday or Tuesday/Friday) CART sessions. * Prior to each session, participants will complete the same 5-10 minute assessment to assess level of anger, aggression, and interactions with others since last assessment. * At the final treatment session, participants will be scheduled to complete a 1-month follow-up assessment. * For follow-up: * Complete a 1-month follow up assessment between 4-8 weeks after the final treatment session. * Participants will be sent a link to complete the follow-up assessment. * Complete the same questionnaires completed at pre-treatment plus an exit interview and a brief satisfaction survey.
