Development and evaluation of the myTBI online psychoeducation platform on psychosocial adjustment to traumatic brain injury from acute to chronic injury

Intervention name: Online psychoeducation platform (myTBI) Intervention description: The myTBI psychoeducation platform will consist of approximately 6 (range: 4-8) brief structured modules addressing common psychosocial challenges experienced after TBI across different injury stages (acute, post-acute, chronic). Examples of psychosocial challenges that may be covered in the psychoeducation modules include understanding the diagnosis, understanding functional limitations, acceptance and coping with challenges, social connection, expectations and setting goals, and the recovery journey. An Expert Group will determine the number and type of modules to be included in the final myTBI platform using the Delphi Expert Consensus method. The Expert Group will consist of a balanced mix of approximately 10-20 clinicians, academics, and people with lived experience with TBI from Western Australia. Expert Group members will participate in multiple rounds of online surveys in which members will be asked to anonymously rank each psychosocial challenge in order of importance until consensus on the modules to include has been achieved. Modules will be purpose-developed and include educational information, and links to relevant strategies and exercises, and other useful resources. Who will deliver the intervention: Self-guided via online platform. Depending on level of cognitive functioning, participants will be able to work through the modules on their own, or to be guided through the modules by a rehabilitation clinician or support worker. Mode of delivery: Online website. Duration: 1 x 30 minute sessions, once a week for 6 weeks. Location: Post-acute community-based rehabilitation centre or at the participant's home.
