Clinical Trial Summary
The investigators are proposing to test Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)+ traditional
audiological behavioral intervention as an integrated, multi-disciplinary approach for the
assessment and treatment of misophonia. Participants will be 60 adults with misophonia and
will be randomly assigned to receive 12 sessions of ACT+behavioral intervention or receive 12
weeks of progressive relaxation training+psychoeducation (PRT; a commonly used active control
condition) after undergoing a comprehensive psychological and audiological evaluation.
Description:
Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) is a promising psychotherapy for supporting
traditional behavioral methods for treating misophonia, but has not been previously tested.
ACT teaches skills to develop acceptance, mindfulness, and defusion from difficult internal
experiences while increasing connections with personal values and encouraging meaningful
behavioral changes.
This study will help determine if ACT+behavioral intervention is a feasible and acceptable
treatment for misophonia, help clarify active psychological mechanisms of misophonia, and
determine whether or not this combination of services can effectively help individuals
diagnosed with misophonia.
