Neuropsychology Brain injury rehabilitation is a challenging process that requires a high level of motivation and effort on the part of the client. Individuals with acquired brain injury experience a number of challenges due to pain, fatigue, frustration tolerance, and a host of other factors that prevent the individual from progressing. Other factors that a brain injured client may and often experience are cognitive and emotional difficulties and problems with awareness and acceptance of disability.
The neuropsychology department at TLC considers neuropsychological assessment crucial to the precise targeting of treatment focus for individuals with acquired brain injury. Every client admitted to TLC receives a comprehensive neuropsychological evaluation that assesses intellectual, cognitive, and emotional strengths and weaknesses. Based on the need of each individual client, the neuropsychology department provides:
- Cognitive rehabilitation therapy
- Individual and group psychotherapy for depression, anxiety, and other psychological consequences of brain injury
- Group treatment focused on stress management, disability adjustment, orientation and cognitive skills
- Treatment for behavioral issues such as impulsivity, socially inappropriate comments, substance abuse, physical and verbal aggression
