Full Description
Living Beyond Brain Injury: A Compassionate Resilient Guide for Survivors is a practical guidebook for people living with brain injury.
Rooted in neuropsychological theory and informed by therapeutic models within the cognitive-behavioural tradition, including contemporary third-wave approachesit introduces a values-based mindset called the Compassionate Resilient Mind (CRM). This balances compassion and resilience to support people's recovery, adaptation, and growth. The book explores common post-injury challenges such as memory, fatigue, navigating emotions and identity change whilst offering practical strategies for improvement. These include easy-to-use worksheets to fill in, simple comparisons that make concepts easier to understand, and ways to become more flexible in thinking. Designed for use independently or with therapists, the guidebook provides accessible tools to better understand yourself, and for navigating setbacks and rebuilding a meaningful life.
This book is for brain injury survivors and the professionals who support them, such as clinical psychologists, neuropsychologists, case managers, occupational therapists, and rehabilitation support workers to work together toward lasting recovery and adjustment.
