Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that occurs after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event. This study aims to determine if the Prism system, a neurofeedback training using EEG (electroencephalography) signals, can help reduce PTSD symptoms. EEG is a test that measures electrical activity in the brain. The study compares Prism training to a sham training that looks similar but doesn't provide real brain feedback.
Participants will:- Attend two one-hour training sessions each week for about 8 weeks (15 sessions total).
- Have two additional training sessions one and two months after the main training.
- Participate in three interviews: before training starts, after nine weeks, and one month after the last session.
To join, you must be 18-65 years old, have a PTSD diagnosis, and be willing to stick to the study schedule. You cannot join if you've had specific mental health conditions or recent substance use issues. This study offers the opportunity to explore new ways to manage PTSD, but it requires commitment and time.
