Summary

This study tests whether a short form of therapy called Focused Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (FACT) can help people with spinal cord injuries improve their mental health and quality of life while still in the hospital. Eight participants will complete questionnaires before and after 1-3 therapy sessions, plus a follow-up interview. The goal is to see if FACT is both acceptable to patients and effective at reducing distress and helping them adjust to their injury.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Focused Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (FACT)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a brief psychological therapy that helps spinal cord injury patients adjust and improve their mental health early in recovery.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early feasibility study with only 8 participants, so results may not apply widely. The therapy may not show clear benefits or may be hard to deliver in a busy hospital setting.
