NY Therapy & Wellness

A great presentation by my student, Mishal Saeed, on providing an overview of Cognitive Rehabilitation Approaches in Rehabilitation Practice to occupational therapists and physiotherapists at NY Therapy & Wellness! A former student occupational therapist, Lia Spear, helped connect us to Gabriella Agro to provide a refresher on how therapists can support clients who present with cognitive dysfunction. International collaboration and connection can provide the opportunity to share knowledge and grow the profession and practice. ?
