Can therapy focused on well-being help chronic migraine?

This trial is testing Well-Being Therapy (WBT), a brief psychological treatment that has helped people with depression and anxiety in past studies. Researchers want to know if this therapy can also help people with chronic migraine by teaching them to recognize, protect, and build moments of psychological well-being. The hope is that improving your sense of well-being might reduce how often migraines happen and how much they interfere with your life.

Chronic migraine is a disabling condition that doesn't always respond well to medication alone. While psychological therapies like mindfulness have been tried, the results have been mixed and there's a real need for better non-medication options. This treatment shows promise in other conditions, so researchers want to see whether it can help people living with chronic migraine.
