Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to test if cognitive interventions in those with diagnosed epilepsy can help lessen cognitive lapses and improve overall brain health.

Participants will participate in weekly, virtual group sessions led by a neuropsychologist for 12 weeks. After the 12-week mark, participants will be asked to practice what they learned for 9 more months. Participants will be asked to complete online questionnaires at certain times during the study. Researchers will compare this intervention group to another group that did not get the intervention to see if the intervention improves brain health. Participation in each of these groups will be randomly assigned. Participation in the study will last for one year.

Cognitive Intervention

This is a virtual, group cognitive intervention. 12 live, weekly sessions will occur during the first 3 months of the study. Groups will be made up of 5-10 participants and will be led by a neuropsychologist. These sessions will include education on the brain and cognitive function as it relates to epilepsy, as well as compensatory strategies for use in daily life. After the 12 sessions, participants will be asked to continue to practice what they learned for the next nine months until their participation ends.
