A 2008 study released by Rand called “Invisible Wounds of War” addressed the issue of PTSD, major depression, and the rising suicide rate in the military. Burris Institute and its Subconscious Restructuring™ process have been compliant with the recommendations of the Rand study for over a decade. An overview of how Burris the Subconscious Restructuring™ process now exceed Rand recommendations can be found in the Evidence-Based section of the Burris Institute website.
Burris Emotional Wellness PTSD Group Study
All 14 in the group study below have seen combat duty and were individually counseled from August, 15th 2010 to April, 3rd 2011. This sample represents one hundred percent of the clients' Beau Chatham, MBC counseled with a PTSD diagnosis during this period. All coaching consisted of two, two-hour sessions. We have continued collecting data on this demographic with consistent outcomes.
Group Study Percent Improvements: Depression 45%, anxiety 42%, anger 50%, sleep 37%, suicidal ideation 61%, eating behavior 36%, relationship satisfaction, 22%.
The 2008 Rand study made several key points (listed below) which Subconscious Restructuring™ fully addressed, complied to, and now exceed.
- Accountability: Rand stated the “black box” of psychotherapy delivered to veterans must be made more transparent, so providers are accountable for their services.
Burris Solution: All SR™ Practitioners are issued a Burris Connect account. BurrisConnect.com represents a comprehensive unprecedented means of monitoring the SR™ Practitioner's performance and warriors they are working with from any location worldwide with three time-proven instruments.
- Increase the cadre of providers who are trained and certified to deliver proven (evidence-based) care.
Burris Solution: The Master Burris Certification program provides autonomy of behavioral health within the military. Master Burris Coaches are able to certify others which allows for a self-perpetuating sustainable cadre of providers.
