Feasibility of Virtual Reality-Delivered Transcending Self Therapy in Veterans Undergoing Residential Substance Use Treatment

Abstract

Substance Use Disorder (SUD) is common among military veterans, where post-traumatic stress disorder and other comorbidities stemming from deployment or other military experiences increase the severity of SUD and incidence of relapse. It is thus critical to discover and evaluate potential advances in SUD treatment, such as methods for enhanced patient engagement in treatment.
