  • Cognitive Skill Training

    Music therapy has been one of our “in-house” therapies since many years, with a lot of success. As reported in recent news, we received funding for music therapy, which will start in the beginning of July with Cathy Bollinger.

    Since several weeks now, we offer also weekly cognitive skill training for the residents of each of our houses. The emphasize is on exercises of memory, attention and recognition. We read stories, play games and soon will also include TBI-specific software for computerized training. Here are a few photos where Eric works with residents of the Ridgewind and Belmont house.
