We report on the feasibility of CBT-informed teletherapy for post-stroke fatigue. - feasible to recruit, tho adherence (59%) lower than expected - no stat sig differences in fatigue, but power low (ESs did favour intervention) - more work needed... doi.org/10.1177/026921…

In press, our paper on a screening and intervention pathway for mental distress in pw epilepsy. Feasible, modest in cost, clinically useful, but requires a pretty proactive approach to reach those who need it.

Our paper on how epilepsy specialists screen for mental distress. Rated as important, but tricky to do - clinical interview favoured over psychometric tool. We argue that standardised questionnaires are useful in busy OP settings when time is limited. doi.org/10.1016/j.yebe…
