This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing whether a type of therapy called Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) can help people with chronic migraine feel less disabled by their condition. ACT teaches you to accept and work with pain rather than fighting it, and to focus on what matters to you despite headaches. Researchers want to see if adding this therapy to your regular migraine medications makes a real difference in your daily life.
While migraine medications have improved, many people still feel significantly disabled by their chronic migraines even with the best treatment. Research shows that behavioral therapies can help with pain-related conditions, so researchers want to test whether this therapy could help reduce the impact migraines have on your ability to work, socialize, and enjoy life.

If you join this study, you will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: one group receives usual migraine treatment plus Acceptance and Commitment Therapy sessions, while the other group continues with usual treatment only. The therapy sessions use technology-based tools and teach you practical skills to help you live better with migraines, even when headaches occur. You will complete assessments throughout the study to measure how much the therapy helps reduce the impact of migraines on your daily activities.
