Trauma-Informed Goal Management Training for Public Safety Personnel (PSP) With Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)

"Trauma Informed-Goal Management Training (TI-GMT) is a modified version of Goal Management Training (GMT), a cognitive remediation program that emphasises mindfulness and practice in planning and completing goal-oriented behaviours. TI-GMT enhances the standard GMT protocol with the addition of several trauma-informed adaptations and content that is sensitive and specific to public safety personnel with PTSD.~Participants are trained to interrupt ongoing disruptive behaviours through the resumption of executive control to help define goal hierarchies and monitor goal achievement. Mindfulness meditation helps develop attentional control and the skill of bringing one's mind to the present. Real-life examples are incorporated to illustrate goal attainment failures and successes, and participants practice solving complex, real-life tasks in sessions.~Sessions include instructional material, interactive tasks, discussion of real-life deficits, and homework/practice activities."
