      Brain Health SA offers services in both neurocognitive assessment and therapy. Individuals who have suffered a brain trauma or disease will require a neurological assessment which is useful in guiding rehabilitation in cognitive therapy, physiotherapy, occupational therapy and if necessary, speech therapy. Psychotherapy is offered to both the individual and their families to assist in adapting to new ways of living and working post injury or disease. Psychotherapy is also offered to those adults suffering from depresison, anxiety or PTSD and an understanding of how these psychological challenges affect the brain is provided. Show less
