Psychotherapy with brain injury survivors: An investigation of the challenges encountered by clinicians and their modifications to therapeutic practice

Judd, D., Wilson, S. L.·2005·Brain Injury

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to elicit practitioners' views and experiences of the challenges to forming a therapeutic alliance with brain injury survivors, with a view to informing current psychotherapeutic practice. METHODS: The present research utilised the data-display method, a qualitative technique, to examine the questionnaire responses of 21 psychologists who provide forms of psychotherapy for brain injury survivors at rehabilitation units in the UK. An anonymous postal return questionnaire was used for data collection. RESULTS: The main challenges to forming a working alliance comprised a range of cognitive, behavioural and emotional sequelae. A combination of educational, psychosocial and cognitive strategies were identified as being most effective in addressing the challenges encountered. CONCLUSIONS: A qualitative research approach has proved useful in identifying challenges to the formation of a working alliance and also the modifications to psychotherapeutic practice these challenges have engendered.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
