The majority of NBC’s patients are cognitively compromised due to some cortical event.  Often we help our clients improve attention and concentration, response inhibition, organize, sequence, process, and acquire and retain information. 

We utilize a “coaching” instructional model that incorporates available neuropsychological data.  While we teach foundational skills, applications are tied to the client’s needs.  We want skills to be useful to the individual.  As progress is noticed at home (where patients are strongly encouraged to practice and rehearse), motivation is increased.  The goal is not to be successful only in our office but in the home, school, or work environment.  It is critical that gains generalize to different skills and settings. 

Some individuals require the addition of relaxation training, biofeedback, or neurofeedback.
