Participants will be assigned to either of two treatment groups: (1) Resilience and Adjustment Intervention (RAI), or (2) RAI+. After randomization, a second appointment will be scheduled. All participants will begin the 7-session treatment during their second appointment. The intervention consists of seven 60-minute sessions scheduled over seven weeks (see attached RAI Implementation Manual). The intervention will be implemented by experienced, licensed therapists (Ph.D. level Interventionists). Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the therapists. The RAI and RAI+ groups will both complete the post-treatment measures immediately after the seventh treatment session and then 3, 4, and 9 months later. Data collection at 3, 4, and 9 months post-treatment will be completed via phone. Furthermore, the RAI+ group will complete 3 booster sessions, spaced approximately 7-10 days apart, beginning 3 months after completion of the seventh treatment session (booster sessions will occur between the 3 and 4 month data collection described above). Data will be analyzed to identify any therapist effects, as well as treatment effects. For the RAI and RAI+ groups, demographic, injury severity, and history information will be collected at intake using standard procedures and protocols. All participants will complete the 4 outcome measures (Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, CD-RISC; Mayo Portland Adaptability Inventory-4, MPAI-4; 13 Item Stress Test; and Brief Symptom Inventory-18, BSI-18) at 5 time points (intake, post-treatment, and 3, 4 and 9 month follow-up).
