This is a pilot study testing the Lullaby Project, a music-based program created to support pregnant individuals living with epilepsy. Researchers want to see whether regular sessions with a professional musician can help improve emotional well-being, reduce anxiety and depression, lower stress, and help participants feel more empowered during pregnancy.
Pregnancy can be a stressful time for anyone, and it can be especially challenging for people with epilepsy who are managing both pregnancy and seizure control. This study explores whether music therapy could be a helpful tool to support mental health and quality of life during this important time.

If selected, you would be randomly assigned to either the music program or a control group. If you're in the music program, you'll meet virtually with a professional musician for 5 to 7 sessions over 10 weeks, with each session lasting about 1.5 hours on Zoom. The study will measure how you feel before and after the program, looking at things like stress, anxiety, depression, and how empowered you feel.
