A large proportion of individuals with alcohol use disorder (AUD) also meet criteria
for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Trauma-focused, cognitive-behavioral therapy delivered alongside interventions for substance use disorders are most effective. Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for PTSD and Relapse Prevention (RP) for AUD are two of the most widely used and effective treatments for these
conditions. The purpose of this study is to examine the CPT-RP, as compared to RP alone, in reducing (1) alcohol use frequency and quantity and (2) PTSD symptom severity among individuals with current AUD/PTSD.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the preliminary acceptability and mental health outcomes associated with engagement in Skills for Psychological Recovery (SPR) and satisfaction with SPR among people who have experienced a sexual assault. The present study will conduct focus groups/interviews and surveys with providers of SPR and victim advocates at rape advocacy centers to understand perceptions of SPR and early interventions in rape advocacy center settings and determine adaptations needed to adapt SPR for the needs of survivors of recent sexual assault. The present study will also assess mental health outcomes on screening data collected as part of clinical care among people receiving SPR as part of clinical care via telehealth at Tri-County SPEAKS, Pathways to Healing, or National Crime Victims Research and Treatment Center and conducted one-time interviews and survey with survivors to get feedback on SPR for recent sexual assault.

The purpose of the study is to compare a text message based mental health and substance use screening and referral to treatment program, called Listening to Women and Pregnant and Postpartum People (LTWP), to standard of care in-person mental health and substance use screening to look at rates of treatment attendance and retention in treatment. Participation would involve completing online surveys. You may be eligible to participate if you are age 18-45 years, are pregnant and entering prenatal care in one of MUSC's OB clinics, and attended a prenatal appointment at an MUSC clinic.

This study is for anyone 18 years or older who provides unpaid care for a loved one living with cancer outside of the hospital setting. The purpose of this study is to help future caregivers and patients by learning how mental fatigue affects caregivers of persons living with cancer and determine if mental fatigue, participating in self-care activities, and general caregiver quality of life are related. Informal caregivers will be invited to complete a confidential, online survey that takes between 25 and 35 minutes to finish. Caregivers who complete the survey may be contacted and asked to participate in a 45-60 minute follow up interview either online or via phone if they are interested. The results of this study will help guide future research to identify ways healthcare professionals can help caregivers handle the stresses of caregiving and provide the best care possible to their loved ones at home.

Each year, roughly 600,000 patients served in U.S. trauma centers develop posttraumatic stress disorder or depression after traumatic injury, but few receive mental health follow-up care. The Trauma Resilience and Recovery Program is a sustainable, stepped-care model that has addressed the mental health needs of over 8,000 patients in four Level I-II trauma centers and is being adopted by 8 additional trauma centers in the Carolinas. This study will examine the effectiveness and implementation of TRRP with a diverse sample of 350 patients served at The George Washington University hospital.

Depression, anxiety, and preventable physical diseases (e.g., obesity, cardiovascular) are interrelated and costly public health problems in Charleston county (Tricounty Community Health Needs Assessment Report, 2019). Given these complex and interrelated needs, the Behavioral Health Task Force of S.C. recommends the development of integrated mental and physical health services in settings such as primary care (S.C. Institute of Medicine and Public Health, 2016) that simultaneously address mental and physical health. Unfortunately, no known IMHWS models have been evaluated in the county or state. The purpose of this research study is to quantitatively and qualitatively evaluate the acceptability of the Modern Minds clinic and model, a novel IMHWS model in the Charleston area. We will be examining providers' and clients' satisfaction with model, as well as conducting interviews to understand how acceptable such a model would be to other communities.

The purpose of this research is to evaluate whether the Relivion®DP device is safe and helpful in alleviating Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) symptoms. The research study includes up to 6 visits, each visit could be performed either at the clinic or remotely using digital means such as a video call or the use of another dedicated platform.In this research study the participant will randomly receive either an active device or a non-active (sham) device and the participant will be asked to preform daily treatments with the device for 8 weeks after which the participant will have the option to continue to an additional 8 week open-label extension with the active device.
We expect that the time commitment for taking part in this research will last up to 20 weeks (including the screening period).

The purpose of this two-visit brain imaging (magnetic resonance imaging, MRI) study is to identify brain targets for improving treatment and preventative interventions for individuals at risk for co-occurring bipolar disorder and alcohol use disorder. The preliminary visit for a parent and his/her biological child will include completion of clinical interviews, surveys, and labwork to determine study eligibility. If they are considered eligible for the study, brain imaging visits will occur within 1-2 weeks at which a 1-hour MRI will be completed along with additional clinical interviews, surveys, and labwork. Brief follow-up phone call interviews will be completed with participants every 3 months for 1 year. Study participation is confidential and compensated.
