COGNITIVE REHABILITATION TREATMENT OF COGNITIVE DEFICITS
Our treatment is private, discrete and effective, to provide you with the
needed assistance in overcoming and compensating cognitive deficits in
atmosphere of personal comfort, privacy and confidentiality you deserve
during these trying times.
In addition to comprehensive neuropsychological exams, we offer non-pharmacological
treatment of neuro-cognitive deficits, such as impaired memory, attention, sustained focus,
thinking, and processing.

This treatment involves systematic, structured training of identified cognitive deficits, and is
referred to as
Cognitive Rehabilitation. The goal of Cognitive Rehabilitation treatment is to
improve and rehabilitate memory, attention, reasoning, information processing, organization,
comprehension, retention, focus, understanding, and thinking abilities, and, thus, improve
functioning in all aspects of personal and professional life.

Rehabilitation treatment may be
restorative (focus on retraining and improving impaired
memory, attention, reasoning, organization, thinking, information processing skills). It can also
be
compensatory (teaching strategies and techniques to cope with existing impairment in
memory, organization, thinking, processing, attention, and sustained focus), or a combination of
both.

Cognitive Rehabilitation is commonly used for the treatment of patients with a history of
traumatic brain injury, stroke, multiple sclerosis, mild cognitive impairment, neuro-toxic exposure,
and other neurological conditions that cause cognitive impairments.

Rehabilitation is a non-medicinal treatment that involves individually tailored cognitive exercises
developed by a Neuropsychologist to retrain and/or improve impaired focus, memory,
organization, reasoning, thinking, and processing skills.

Cognitive rehabilitation treatment is provided only by a neuropsychologist who works to improve
impaired memory, thinking, processing abilities, which ultimately improves ability to perform
activities of daily living through the repeated use of exercises of increasing difficulty. Restorative
rehabilitation involves re-training of the impaired skills that were affected by the brain injury.
Compensatory rehabilitation involves teaching the patients various strategies to use their intact
abilities in order to compensate for the impaired memory, attention, thinking, and processing
skills. In combination,  these exercises rehabilitate memory, attention, thinking and processing
deficits and help patients to regain their independence and employability.  

Cognitive rehabilitation treatment differs greatly from self-initiated, home based cognitive
exercises, such as computer games, puzzles, etc., wherein you do not get the benefit of
objective assessment of impaired skills and precisely developed exercises to improve your
impaired abilities.

In-office, professionally delivered cognitive rehabilitation treatment includes close monitoring
and adjustment of the treatment process by a neuropsychologist. Neuropsychologist develops
specific exercises that precisely target patients’ cognitive deficits and relate to their life and
work, and timely feedback to the patients – all to ensure an
effective treatment that does
not waste time and delivers long-term effect
. Cognitive rehabilitation treatment enhances
the patients’ overall memory, focus, thinking, processing, and attention functioning and, thus,
helps retain or regain their employment and increase personal independence.

According to the
National Institutes of Health (NIH), the most effective cognitive rehabilitation
treatment interventions for brain injury are those that are structured, systematic, goal-directed,
and individualized. We offer only individual, private sessions for maximum effect.
