Summary

The goal of this pilot study is to determine the feasibility, acceptability and impact of a brief behavioral intervention - the "Well-Beans for Caregivers" program, for adult caregivers of individuals with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) of any age. The main questions of the study are:

1. Can this innovative, ultra-brief caregiver well-being intervention be delivered feasibly to caregivers via an online modality?
2. How do the caregivers experience the program (acceptability)?
3. Does limited efficacy testing suggest the program has an impact on caregiver's well-being?

Conditions

  • Adult Caregivers of Individuals With TSC
  • Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC)

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Well-Beans for Caregivers Program

This is a brief behavioral intervention consisting of 3 weekly 2-hour sessions. The sessions are based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and are designed to improve psychological flexibility in caregivers. This in turn is designed to help them connect with their difficult emotions and experiences in a flexible way, and improve emotional well-being.
