About this trial
The goal of this study is to learn if a single session intervention for people with Functional Cognitive Disorder (FCD) is feasible and acceptable. The main questions it aims to answer are:
What is the impact of a single session intervention on FCD symptoms, functional impairment, and quality of life in people with FCD?
What is the feasibility and acceptability of piloting a single session intervention for people with FCD.
Participants will:
* Complete questionnaires about cognitive concerns, anxiety, depression, functional impairment and quality of life * Visit the clinic for a single session intervention including practicing the Attention Training Technique (ATT) * Complete 2 telephone calls with a researcher to discuss their use of the intervention and to complete the same questionnaires from their clinic visit, and a questionnaire about their experience of the study and intervention.
