This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
The MIRROR study tests a two-part approach to help female veterans heal from trauma and its effects. You would participate in either webSTAIR (an online emotion regulation skills program) or psychoeducation, both followed by exposure therapy—a well-established treatment where a therapist helps you gradually process traumatic memories in a safe way.
Many female veterans experience multiple types of trauma—military sexual trauma, intimate partner violence, and brain injuries—all at once. Currently, there are few treatments designed to address all three together and help veterans rebuild emotional strength and resilience.

You would spend about 5 weeks in the first part of the study—either completing online skill-building modules or attending online psychoeducation sessions. Then you would spend another 5 weeks in therapy with a clinician who will guide you through exposure therapy. A researcher will check in with you at a follow-up visit 3 months later to see how you're doing.
