Psychotherapy with the neuropsychologically impaired adult

Article Abstract:

Brain-damaged patients except those severely damaged can be successfully treated with psychotherapy despite a general belief to the contrary. All that it takes is a modification of training methods to suit the peculiar emotional, psychological and mental state of the patient. Treatment is difficult indeed since there will be some neuropsychological limitations. Premorbid character traits are likely to reveal themselves and interrelate with neuropsychological deficits. The therapist can look at the patient's inherent strength and cultivate their sense of hope to counteract deficits.
