Trauma Informed Guilt Reduction (TrIGR) Intervention

Abstract

Posttraumatic guilt and shame are common among Veterans and have been implicated in the development and maintenance of posttraumatic distress and a range of adverse outcomes, including posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression and suicidality, and alcohol/substance use disorders. There is a pressing need for effective treatments targeting transdiagnostic mechanisms such as guilt. We developed Trauma Informed Guilt Reduction (TrIGR) therapy as a therapeutic tool to help Veterans accurately appraise deployment-related guilt and to re-identify and re-engage with their values. The overall objective of this study is to examine the efficacy of TrIGR in reducing deployment-related guilt.
