Summary

This study tests whether acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), delivered via online video calls, can help stroke survivors adjust emotionally. Five adults who had a stroke over three months ago will attend weekly 90-minute group sessions for eight weeks. Researchers will track changes in psychological flexibility and mood using questionnaires before, during, and up to six months after therapy.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) delivered via online group sessions
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a practical, home-based therapy to help stroke survivors cope with emotional challenges.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early-stage trial with only 5 participants. Results may not apply to all stroke survivors, and the therapy might not provide lasting benefits.
