At their most serious, these events are critical and life threatening, but even a mild incident can cause problems with memory, communication, and mental focus. What’s worse, this kind of cognitive function loss often causes other psychological symptoms like depression and low self-esteem.

If you or someone you love has suffered a mild traumatic brain injury, this engaging workbook will help you: •Learn the causes and symptoms of MTBI •Understand the brain injury recovery timeline •Manage medical care and set realistic goals for recovery •Recover memory, communication, and visuospatial ability •Cope with related symptoms like depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem
