Acquired Brain Injury Services
Towards meaningful living
The question is not how to get cured, but how to live
-Joseph Conrad
Flexible
We take an iterative approach, regularly reviewing and adjusting support to reflect each person’s goals, circumstances, and stage of recovery.
Person-driven
Support is tailored to each person’s needs and priorities, promoting independence, wellbeing, and meaningful participation in daily life.
Evidence-based
We draw on established research to help improve emotional wellbeing, strengthen abilities, and support meaningful recovery.
Psychological therapy
Difficulties with depression, anxiety, and adjustment are common after acquired brain injury.
We tailor interventions to suit the unique needs of our clients, considering any physical, psychological, and cognitive challenges resulting from brain injury.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT)
Motivational Interviewing (MI)
Eye Movement and Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy
Supportive Counselling
Positive behaviour support (PBS)
An acquired brain injury may lead to changes in behaviour which cause concern.
We work collaboratively with individuals, families and care providers to conduct comprehensive assessments to understand the causes of behaviours of concern and develop PBS strategies to improve quality of life and wellbeing for individuals and those supporting them.
We deliver training to carers and support staff around brain injury and behaviour, and provide ongoing monitoring, evaluation, and support around PBS strategies.
