Cognitive Rehabilitation Therapy

Occupational and Speech Therapy

Cognitive rehabilitation therapy is a set of evidence-based interventions that aim to restore or compensate for impaired cognitive functioning caused by neurological conditions such as traumatic brain injury, neurodegenerative disease and stroke. It works by leveraging neuroplasticity through individualized skill training combined with metacognitive strategies that help a person build self-awareness and monitor their own problem-solving, with the goal of improving memory, attention, executive function, language and daily independence.
