The Invisible Brain Injury recounts, in her own words, the
experience of Aurora Lassaletta, a clinical psychologist who
suffered a traumatic brain injury (TBI) after a traffic accident.
Presenting her unique dual perspective as both a patient and a
clinician, Aurora highlights the less visible cognitive, emotional
and behavioural symptoms common to acquired brain injury (ABI).
This moving account showcases Aurora's growing awareness of her
impairments, their manifestation in daily life, how they are
perceived, or not, by others and the tools that helped her survive.
Each chapter combines Aurora's perspective with the scientific view
of a professional neuropsychologist or physiatrist who provide
commentaries on her various symptoms. This book is valuable reading
for professionals involved in neurorehabilitation and clinical
neuropsychology and for clinical psychology students. It is a must
read for ABI survivors, those around them and clinicians, who are
all an essential part of the rehabilitation, adjustment and
acceptance process involved with ABI.
