Collaborative Care for Anxiety and Depression in Epilepsy
This study is looking at two ways to help adults who have epilepsy along with anxiety or depression. One group will receive "collaborative care," which is a 24-week program where a care manager checks in every two weeks to discuss anxiety, depression, seizures, and side effects, and offers brief therapy. This care manager and a psychiatrist will work with your neurologist. The other group will receive "usual neurology care," which is your regular care without this extra program. The study wants to see if collaborative care improves your emotional quality of life after six months. You can join if you are 18 or older, have epilepsy, and experience anxiety or depression symptoms, and receive care at Atrium Health. The study is currently unclear on its recruitment status.
