NCT ID NCT06333925
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 17, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This pilot study tests a new approach for misophonia, a condition where common sounds like chewing or breathing cause extreme distress. Sixty adults with moderate to severe misophonia will learn emotion regulation skills and receive one of two types of brain stimulation (rTMS) over four sessions. The goal is to see if this combination can reduce sound-triggered distress and change brain activity in emotion-related areas.
