A New Approach to FND.

You've tried it all, but Functional Neurological Disorder remains. Let us show you how ReACT is a (very) different treatment for FND.

ReACT & ReACT FND Health

Retraining and Control Therapy (ReACT)

ReACT is the only treatment for pediatric functional neurological disorder (FND) supported by outcomes of a pilot randomized controlled trial. ReACT was developed by Dr. Aaron Fobian, Associate Professor at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. It uses principles of habit reversal and other evidence-based techniques to retrain the involuntary, reflexive functional symptoms, empowering individuals to regain control over their bodies. ReACT utilizes the Precision Treatment Tool, an innovative psychologist-centered digital platform. See the Provider page for more information. Research on ReACT is ongoing, including two NIH-funded studies on ReACT: a mechanistically-focused NIMH-funded study to confirm the treatment targets by which ReACT is effective and a NCCIH-funded multi-site feasibility trial with Yale University and Baylor College of Medicine in preparation for a large efficacy trial.

ReACT FND Health

ReACT FND Health is a company focused on distributing this novel intervention to families and providers alike. We will offer: Patient-Focused Treatment, ReACT Provider Certification, and Community Consultation.

What Patients Are Saying

  • "In fact, in January of 2022, just six weeks after her first ReACT session at UAB, our daughter went back to school full time for the first time in two years. It was amazing! ...through this program we now have the tools to recognize what is going on and work toward eliminating those symptoms as well."


  • "She learned how to recognize when the episodes are coming on and techniques to control them. She is now able to have her independence and take back control of her life episode free."


  • "Within a matter of weeks, our daughter was regaining her life, and within a matter of a few months, was able to do everything she wanted. Although she still has symptoms here or there, even a year and a half after finishing treatment, she is confident in her ability to manage symptoms as they come, is not held back by her diagnosis in anything, and feels so proud of herself for thriving despite the challenges she has had."


  • "I feel independent now that I have control of my symptoms...This treatment has taught me many important lessons, like how to manage my symptoms, how to cope with the pain, and how to stay calm when everything seems out of control."


  • "They slowly started attacking each of his symptoms one at a time. She taught him in a very methodical process how to retrain his brain and he did! Now, two years later he is back to normal; completely 100%."
