Description
Elizabeth Greene and co-authors review how telehealth is changing mental health care for veterans and active-duty service members. They gather recent trials and cohort studies on video-based therapy, self-guided internet therapy, and mobile apps for four conditions: post-traumatic stress disorder, major depression, alcohol use disorder, and insomnia.
The evidence is strong that live video therapy works for post-traumatic stress, depression, and insomnia in this group. Self-guided internet therapy also helps, above all when a coach supports it through telemedicine. The case is weaker for alcohol problems and for phone apps, which need more study. The authors, whose reading was cross-checked with an artificial intelligence platform, argue that military and veterans' health systems should build on the proven formats while research tests the rest.
