Abstract

As the war in Afghanistan for many United States service members is coming to an end, focus on veteran recovery and mental health maintenance is emerging. Veterans’ mental health problems have been cited as an individual and familial problem (Segrin, 2012). As a result, further examination that includes partners as well as challenges and resilience among military couples is needed to assess a more comprehensive view of the repercussions of mental illness on the veteran.

Couple resilience and implications for mental health practitioners are also discussed.
