Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if new educational program prior to epilepsy surgery can either decrease the risk of cognitive decline after surgery or be a help to those patients who experience a decline after undergoing epilepsy surgery.

Participants will participate in 2 individual virtual sessions and 4 virtual group sessions over the course of 5-6 weeks prior to their epilepsy surgery. They will asked to fill out online surveys and questionnaires at various times throughout the study, up to 12 months after their surgery.

To see if the educational program works, researchers will compare those participating in the educational program with those that are receiving the standard epilepsy care prior to surgery.

BEHAVIORAL

ReBOOT program

This is a virtual cognitive intervention led by a clinical neuropsychologist. Participants will attend 2 one-on-one individual sessions and 4 group sessions prior to their epilepsy surgery. Groups will be made up of 3-10 participants. The intervention is designed to provide participants with information about possible changes and/or challenges they may experience after epilepsy surgery, as well as cognitive strategies to implement prior to surgery to increase effectiveness of compensation for any new cognitive difficulties that may be experienced following surgery.
