Study Summary

With this research, the investigators hope to learn if cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) works in people who have both PTSD and problems with drugs or alcohol. In the past, people who had problems with drugs and alcohol were not given treatment for their PTSD. It was believed that PTSD treatment would get in the way of their drug and alcohol treatment. Now the investigators believe that the PTSD symptoms may make it harder to avoid using drugs and alcohol, so the investigators want to see if people can get treatment for both problems at the same time. One hundred-sixty Veterans from 3 sites who have both PTSD and substance use disorders will be in the study. In order to know if the PTSD treatment is helpful, half of the Veterans in this study will receive PTSD treatment and half will continue to get their usual mental health and/or substance abuse treatment. Who gets which treatment will be decided by a random process. The investigators will then compare the 2 groups to see if there are differences in their PTSD symptoms.

Primary Outcome

PTSD symptom severity will be measured by the Clinician Administered PTSD Scale (CAPS). The Clinician Administered PTSD SCALE (CAPS) is the gold standard in PTSD assessment. It is a structured interview that can be used to: Make current (past month) diagnosis of PTSD and Make lifetime diagnosis of PTSD. The minimum value is a 0 and the maximum is 135, the higher the score the worse the outcome, i.e. the more severe PTSD.
