Project UPLIFT
Project UPLIFT is a free, eight-week, skill-building, phone-based course for adults living with epilepsy using mindfulness and cognitive-behavioral therapy. An outcomes study of Project UPLIFT reported decreased depression and lower anxiety/stress in participants, with some reporting fewer seizures.
Project UPLIFT is not a therapy or counseling group, but rather a course that teaches skills to help your daily life with epilepsy.

Case Management

Care management is open to anyone living with epilepsy or their family members.
Preferred Provider Network
The goal of the Preferred Provider Network is to ensure all individuals living with epilepsy and seizure disorders have access to quality, affordable mental health care so that not another moment is lost to seizures.
Our Preferred Provider Network trains mental health clinicians to work effectively with people living with epilepsy and seizures.
The Foundation keeps a database of these therapists and matches clients with a therapist upon request. The Foundation also provides reimbursement of up to $30 per session for the first 8 sessions.
