First-Line Clinical Approaches with Active Duty Service Members and Veterans

‘Dr. Johnson’s compilation offers both breadth and depth to any reader interested in mental health for active-duty service members, veterans, and their families. Their unique symptom landscape and related evidence-based treatments are explained with a cultural competence that only becomes more essential as the military population keeps growing in diversity. I highly recommend this book to anyone who works with veterans. It is a valuable resource that will help you provide effective and culturally responsive care as well as support others in doing so.’

Dr. Daniel Levinson, Licensed psychologist serving veterans, USA

‘This book is a cogent and comprehensive examination of the clinical mental health issues experienced by diverse active-duty service members and veterans. Practitioners and researchers working with these populations will gain considerable insight from the work of Dr Johnson and the experts assembled to craft this culturally responsive clinical resource. The integration of empirically-based practices along with cultural factors is very timely. The dual focus on the military and veterans is quite instructive. I strongly recommend this book to anyone working with military or veteran clinical populations.’
