Cognitive rehabilitation generally refers to a clinic based treatment that is provided by a trained professional. Neuropsychologists, speech and language therapists and occupational therapists are typically trained in these methods. The strategies involved in the treatment plan depend on the individual's specific cognitive strengths and weaknesses. These strategies can include a range of methods including the use of assistive technology, cognitive exercises, compensatory strategies and relaxation training, among others.
