“Moral injury” describes the biopsychosocial distress and impairment that results from high magnitude events that involve violations of right and wrong (i.e., moral injury events). Moral injury may be an increasingly common treatment target / goal in VA mental health clinics, however there are few guidelines or evidence-based treatments for moral injury. This talk will review qualitative data summarizing Veteran patients’ and VA mental health clinicians’ and chaplains’ perspectives on recovering from moral injury, including preferred treatment targets, facilitators and barriers to engaging in or providing moral injury treatment – with a particular focus on group therapy for moral injury.
