Fortunately, there are things anyone can do to recover from a mild traumatic brain injury, get back lost cognitive ability, and restore a healthy frame of mind. 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
