Summary

Children with neurofibromatosis are more likely to have difficulties related to their psychological and neurocognitive functioning (e.g., more likely to have depression, have social difficulties, be diagnosed with ADHD). The purpose of this randomized control study is to determine how effective and useful this study's single session intervention can be in improving psychological and neurocognitive functioning. Enrolled families will consist of one parent/guardian and child. Parents and patients will complete questionnaires and objective tests at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months. Families randomized to the intervention arm will be provided with one single session intervention at Month 1 to learn about their child's testing results and receive psychoeducation and recommendations related to psychological and neurocognitive functioning.
