There is growing evidence for the effectiveness of internet-based self-guided therapy, particularly when combined with coaching support provided by telemedicine, for symptoms of PTSD, MDD, and insomnia. The effectiveness of telehealth in the treatment of alcohol use disorders is less well-supported, as is the effectiveness of mobile applications. These findings are supported by the team\u2019s analysis of the literature as well as an analysis provided by an Artificial Intelligence (AI) platform.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Summary<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The current evidence supports the use of synchronous video-teleconference and internet-based self-guided therapy with coaching support in the treatment of several common diagnoses in the military veteran and ADSM populations.
