Summary

This study aims to evaluate the feasibility of novel cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT)-based intervention designed to improve functional memory symptoms after concussion. Participants will be randomized to CBT or an attention-matched control intervention (cognitive rehabilitation). The primary outcomes for this trial are feasibility metrics, including recruitment, patient-perceived credibility of treatment, patient adherence to treatment, therapists' compliance with the treatment protocol, and retention.

Conditions

  • Mild Traumatic Brain Injury
  • Functional Neurological Disorder

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

Cognitive behavioural therapy for functional memory symptoms after concussion is delivered by a psychologist over 11 individual (1:1) secure videoconference sessions. The core active ingredients are 1) Behavioural experiments, which acts by phasing out compensatory strategies in order to increase normal memory use and 2) Cognitive reappraisal, which aids in re-interpreting memory lapses in order to reduce reactivity to them.

BEHAVIORAL

Cognitive Rehabilitation

Training and practice with external memory aids/compensatory strategies, adapted from Shum et al. (2011). J Rehabil Med, 43(3):216-223.
