Overcoming Grief and Loss after Brain Injury is a practical, comprehensive, and simply-written book that provides foundational brain injury information and coping resources for persons recovering from and living with the disabilities that accompany this devastating injury. The book guides the reader toward self-assessment of their own concerns related to common post injury domains of impairment. Following help in identifying individual injury-related problems, the book provides clients with instructions and practice in use of a multitude of evidence-based compensatory strategies and coping skills. Clients can use the book to improve their cognitive, emotional, and functional status after brain injury. The book is written to assist patients, even if they are not able to work with a therapist or counselor. The supportive and therapeutic components of the book include the normalizing of brain injury symptoms and emotional responses, supported self-assessment, stress and emotional management techniques, compensatory strategies for a wide range of typical post injury deficits, links to community resources, and ideas for returning to work.

Many individuals who have suffered brain injuries often experience emotional seizures, which are uncontrollable verbal and physical outbursts resulting from frustration. These seizures can be distressing for all parties involved. However, it's important to note that there is hope for managing them effectively. Following a traumatic brain injury (TBI), it is common for individuals to exhibit behavioral issues. The injured brain's ability to handle frustration becomes severely limited, and TBI survivors face daily challenges in coping with the healing process. Consequently, an overwhelmed brain can easily lead to sudden outbursts, whether verbal or physical. By identifying and addressing triggers, it is possible to significantly reduce the occurrence of these emotional seizures. In the book, we explore various triggers that commonly provoke emotional seizures and provide practical advice for effectively managing them. This resource aims to equip individuals with tips and tricks to better navigate and alleviate the impact of emotional seizures on their lives.

Therapists' Guide to Overcoming Grief and Loss after Brain Injury is written as a neurobehavioral and cognitive intervention manual for clinicians who counsel persons with brain injury. The Therapist's Guide provides step-by-step protocols, using the content of the patient workbook Overcoming Grief and Loss after Brain Injury. Each of the 9 Lessons can be used as a basis for therapy appointments with consumers. Most mental health clinicians do not fully understand the special learning needs of this client population or how to modify the usual psychotherapy or counseling process to accommodate their unique impairments and allow them to benefit. The Therapists' Guide provides the structure, grounded in the current brain injury literature that allows the clinician to teach and guide the client effectively.
