Neurological Rehabilitation

Psychological support for people and families adjusting to brain injury and neurological conditions.

Living with a neurological condition or recovering from a brain injury can affect far more than physical health. It can touch emotions, thinking skills, relationships, identity and independence. I support individuals and families to make sense of these changes, manage challenges, and adjust to life after injury or diagnosis.

Psychological input can involve therapy, assessment, or collaborative work with others involved in your care. It is always tailored to you, whether you are coping with a new diagnosis, adjusting to long-term disability, returning to work, or navigating changes in family roles and relationships.

Support may include

Emotional adjustment after diagnosis or injuryAnxiety, low mood and grief related to neurological changeIdentity and self-esteem after changes in functioningHelping families and carers understand and communicateRehabilitation-focused therapy for motivation, confidence and recoveryReturn-to-work planning and psychological readinessPsychoeducation around cognitive changesBehavioural and emotional support after acquired brain injuryCognitive and neuropsychological assessmentStrategies and functional changes to support cognitive difficultiesLiaison with case managers, support workers and MDTs

Conditions often supported

Acquired brain injury (TBI, stroke, encephalitis)Functional neurological disorder (FND)EpilepsyMultiple sclerosis (MS)Parkinson’s diseaseDementia or mild cognitive impairmentOther long-term neurological or neurodegenerative conditions

Approach

All psychological input is evidence-based and adapted to your goals, cognitive profile and level of insight. Sessions draw on cognitive behavioural therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, compassion-focused therapy and neurorehabilitation-informed therapy, and can include psychoeducation, strategy-building, emotional support and family work.

I can work on my own or alongside other professionals, such as occupational therapists, speech and language therapists and physiotherapists, and I am experienced in working as part of a multidisciplinary team.
