详细描述
The goal of this research plan is to test the effectiveness of a brief, cognitive behavioral (CB) intervention to promote behavioral health treatment engagement among at-risk Veterans who call the Crisis Line but are resistant to behavioral health services. This randomized controlled trial will recruit 80 Veterans who report current suicidal ideation at the time of the Crisis Line call and are resistant to seeking behavioral health treatment. Half of the participants will receive the brief, individualized CB intervention and half will receive standardized procedures from VA's Crisis Line (i.e., usual care). The effectiveness of the intervention will be tested on 1) attitudes toward behavioral health treatment rates, and 2) initiation of and adherence to treatment (assessed by the number of sessions attended). The investigators will also assess the impact of the intervention on suicidal ideation (SI) and explore the impact on the most common symptoms observed in Veteran suicide decedents (e.g., depression).
