Training Description
Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is often referred to as a silent epidemic. In recent years, we have heard increasing amounts of research about head injury, mTBI (concussions), and how head injuries may be cumulative, and can lead to long term problems emotionally, cognitively, and physically. In many cases, TBI can impact individuals throughout the life span.
TBI can result in cognitive, emotional, behavioral and physical problems; and TBI can often mimic a variety of disorders including ADD/ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, Oppositional Defiant Disorder and PTSD. This 1.5 hour workshop will provide an overview of TBI, causes of TBI, symptoms of TBI and the use of neurofeedback to treat TBI. Case examples will be used throughout the workshop.
Target Audience Description: Clinicians working with patients who have experienced head injury and administrators in clinical settings.
