PARTICIPANTS REQUIRED FOR RESEARCH PROJECT ON HELPING TEENAGERS WITH ACQUIRED BRAIN INJURY MANAGE ANXIETY


A research study at The Royal Children’s Hospital is currently underway aimed at helping teenagers with acquired brain injury (ABI) manage their anxiety. We are looking for teenagers to participate in the study who have had an ABI and are experiencing anxiety.
Teenagers enrolled in the study will participate in a cognitive-behavioural therapy program aimed at reducing their anxiety. The program runs for 11 sessions over 11 weeks.
We would like to hear from you if you or your child:
(1) is aged 12–19 years,
(2) has had an acquired brain injury (e.g., traumatic brain injury, stroke),
(3) has difficulties with anxiety, and
(4) the injury/onset occurred more than 6 months ago.
