Description

Jonathan Yahalom and co-authors published a study protocol in 2026 for a group therapy tailored to male veterans who experienced sexual trauma during military service. Such trauma is common in men, often unreported, and tied to shame about masculinity that drives men out of treatment. No veterans' program had been built for men specifically.

The team will refine an existing twelve-session men's group using focus groups, interviews, and expert input. A small randomized pilot with thirty-two veterans then tests it against a present-focused group therapy. Finally they will study what helps or hinders delivery in clinics, feeding lessons back into the design.
