Summary

This trial will examine whether a 5-session class focused on teaching introductory CBT skills can help prevent PTSD and related conditions in public safety personnel.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for public safety personnel who are part of an ongoing study on using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with Mindfulness (CBTm) to build workplace resilience. It's designed to help prevent PTSD and manage stress.
What is being tested?
The trial tests if a 5-session CBTm class can increase brain connectivity associated with resilience against PTSD in public safety workers, by comparing fMRI scans before and after the course.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this intervention involves therapy classes rather than medication, typical medical side effects are not expected. Participants may experience emotional discomfort discussing traumatic events.
