Study Summary
The purpose of the study is to investigate whether an occupational therapy program could enhance mental health outcomes for veterans who SCUBA dive. SCUBA diving requires modified breathing techniques and has been found to provide calming effects to individuals who engage in this activity. Occupational therapy interventions such as mindfulness, journaling, and deep breathing techniques can also provide similar calming effects. Therefore, this study will explore whether occupational therapy can provide additional benefits to overall mental health of veterans who SCUBA dive.
Primary Outcome

The participants will identify up to 5 goals. For each goal the participant will rate their perceived performance on a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 representing the lowest level of performance and 10 representing the highest level of
