Behavioural Approaches in Neuropsychological Rehabilitation - Optimising Rehabilitation Procedures (Hardcover)

The potential of behavioural approaches for improving the lives of people with acquired brain injury is immense. Here that potential is laid out and explored with a thorough going regard for clinical practice and the theoretical frameworks that underpin that practice. Rather than prescribing fixed techniques that exclude lessons from psychotherapy, cognitive neuropsychology and linguistics, Behavioural Approaches to Neuropsychological Rehabilitation sets out a more open-ended form of clinical assessment which enables clinicians to conceptualise, identify and measure the difficulties of people with acquired brain damage. It is on this sound empirical basis that programmes of intervention and therapy can be planned and implemented. Case studies provide practical illustration of the methods, effects and outcomes of rehabilitation, whilst throughout, the practical issues of implementation are kept in view. This book will prove an invaluable resource for clinical psychologists and the whole range of therapists working with patients suffering from acquired brain damage.
