Many individuals who have sustained disabling injuries in the workplace react to their situation with a sense of 'injustice'. Research over the past 20 years has revealed that, interpreting one's post-injury life situation as 'unjust', actually interferes with recovery from the disabling injury. Post-injury perceptions of injustice contribute to more severe pain, more severe symptoms of depression and PTSD, and more prolonged absence from work. Several clinical researchers have highlighted the need to develop approaches to treatment that can reduce post-injury perceptions of injustice. A brief intervention was developed to reduce post-injury perceptions of injustice. The intervention consists of 4 30-minute sessions with a psychologist. The intervention is called 'Managing Post-Injury Challenges' (MPIC). The MPIC sessions are delivered virtually (online). As a first step toward determining whether MPIC has added value for promoting more successful recovery following work injury, the proposed research will assess the feasibility of MPIC. Some of the feasibility questions that will be addressed include: Are injured workers interested in participating in MPIC? Do injured individuals remain sufficiently engaged to complete all 4 sessions of MPIC? Does participation in MPIC contribute to meaningful reductions in perceived injustice? And are injured individuals satisfied with the benefits of MPIC? MPIC differs from many other rehabilitation interventions in that it focuses on a '…
