Individual and group psychotherapy in milieu-oriented neurorehabilitation.
Neuropsychologists treating patients with brain injury face many challenges in helping them recover and adapt to their injuries. Individual and group psychotherapy in a milieu-oriented treatment setting are important tools to facilitate this process. This article first focuses on "why" psychotherapy services are important after brain injury. Following that, specific prerequisites, criteria, and techniques of psychotherapy (How, When, and Where sections) are explored. Case study examples are incorporated to illustrate important concepts.
