About: 

Project UPLIFT is a telehealth program using cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to treat depression in people with epilepsy.

The Story: 

Depression is one of the most common mental health disorders among people with epilepsy. A review of studies shows that between 32-48% of people living with epilepsy also experience depression. This impacts quality of life, family functioning, and even seizure frequency. Project UPLIFT was created to help people better understand and cope with depression.
