 After Brain Injury: Tools for Living

By J. Lynne Mann, R. Psych. with Michael Rossiter

This guide discusses the emotional trauma and process of healing and recovery that is often overlooked in treatment and rehabilitation of adults with brain injury or stroke. It is based on the belief that it is not only the survivor of brain injury who needs to recover, but also the survivor’s family and friends and most importantly, the caregiver. Written by a mental health therapist and a parent/caregiver, the focus is on practical methods and information for helping people with acquired brain injuries move forward in their lives. The authors give clear explanations with useful strategies that families and survivors can use every day. Worksheets and instructional aides are included in each chapter.
