First seen Mar 18, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 3 times

Summary

This study tests a therapy called ReACT for teens aged 11-18 who have psychogenic non-epileptic seizures (PNES), which look like seizures but aren't caused by epilepsy. The therapy focuses on changing thoughts and behaviors to improve the teen's sense of control and reduce fear of symptoms. Participants will attend 12 sessions of either ReACT or supportive therapy and be followed for up to a year to see if their seizures decrease.
