The symptoms and consequences of multiple sclerosis (MS) place significant demands on individuals’ ability to cope and manage the illness and live fulfilling lives. This study seeks to enhance self-efficacy (a person’s belief in his or her ability to achieve goals, complete tasks, or solve future problems) to improve health and disease management, build resilience, enhance psychological well-being, and promote a more active participation in the community.
This study is completely remote and does not require in-person visits.
