Mothers in the treatment group will complete pre- and post-treatment self-report surveys assessing trauma symptoms, mental health, parenting attitudes and behaviors, and infant crying patterns and socioemotional development. Mothers in the treatment group will be provided with a wearable neurofeedback device called the MUSE 2, to use at home for 4-6 10-minute sessions per week, over the course of 3 months. Mothers in the treatment group will complete weekly virtual surveys assessing emotional and behavioral self-regulation capacities (e.g., anger control, etc.) throughout the 3 month duration of this study phase. Mothers in the treatment group will also answer additional weekly questions about intervention uptake (i.e., no. of sessions completed in the past week) and feasibility (i.e.,barriers to treatment uptake, ease of use of the device, etc.).

Mothers in the wait-list control group will complete pre- and post-treatment self-report surveys assessing trauma symptoms, mental health, parenting attitudes and behaviors, and infant crying patterns and socioemotional development. Mothers in the wait-list control group will complete weekly virtual surveys assessing emotional and behavioral self-regulation capacities (e.g., anger control, etc.) throughout the 3 month duration of this study phase.

During each at-home treatment session, mothers will place the MUSE 2 on their heads and connect it to the app on their personal device. Their brain activity is monitored by the MUSE 2 and is represented on the app through audio-based feedback (e.g., birds chirping, sounds of waves lapping on the beach) that mothers will listen to with earbuds as they direct their focus on maintaining a calm state of mind during the session; when a calm state is maintained, they are rewarded with calming sounds. The goal is to gain increased conscious control over their own brain activity. The audio feedback, primarily composed of nature-based sounds, is meant to guide their brain activity into a calm state. The session will begin, and the MUSE 2 will provide audio feedback in real time to guide their brainwave activity into an optimal frequency bandwidth range (e.g., as their brain activity reaches the target state, sounds of wind would subside to peaceful waves or other rewarding audio feedback).

The Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Checklist for DSM-5 - Standard will be administered to participants at baseline and again after the intervention has concluded 3 months later. Scores range from 0-80, with higher scores indicating worse outcomes, i.e., a greater severity of symptoms.

The Dissociative Experiences Scale II will be administered to participants at baseline and again after the intervention has concluded 3 months later. Scores range from 0-100, with higher scores indicating worse outcomes, i.e., more dissociative symptoms.

The Parenting Stress Index 4 - Short Form will be administered to participants at baseline and again after the intervention has concluded 3 months later. Overall stress scores range from 36-180, with higher scores indicating worse outcomes, i.e., more stress.

The Parenting Sense of Competence scale will be administered to participants at baseline and again after the intervention has concluded 3 months later. Scores range from 17-102, with higher scores indicating better outcomes, i.e., a greater sense of parenting competency.

The Brief Child Abuse Potential measure will be administered to participants at baseline and again after the intervention has concluded 3 months later. Scores range from 0-34, with higher scores indicating worse outcomes, i.e., greater risk of child abuse.
