What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a brief, non-stigmatizing option to help veterans manage distress and reintegrate into civilian life.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study with 176 participants, so results may not apply to all veterans. The workshop is only one day, which may not be enough for lasting change.
