'Coping with Brain Fog' program

The proposed intervention is an 8-week 'Coping with Brain Fog' program for cancer survivors, adapted for AYAs with cancer, with one 90-minute group session per week. The intended group size for the program is 8-12 participants. The program was developed to be delivered in person, however for the purposes of this study it will be conducted in a virtual setting. The overall goals of the program are to educate participants about cancer-related brain fog and enhance their cognitive function and wellbeing. To accomplish this, the program is segmented into three main components: memory skills, task management, and psychological wellbeing. For each component, participants are systematically introduced to evidence-based strategies to cumulatively build a repertoire of cognitive tools designed to reduce the impact of cancer-related brain fog. The program uses a manual and participant materials that are copyrighted by Maximum Capacity Inc.
