Course Description
Empower your rehabilitation practice with evidence-based psychological strategies designed to break through the most common barriers to functional recovery. This comprehensive course equips physical therapists, occupational therapists, and nurses with the essential "soft skills" that deliver hard results: addressing the depression and anxiety that affect one in three rehab patients. By mastering motivational interviewing, fostering a robust therapeutic alliance, and implementing behavioral activation, you will learn to transform patient amotivation into active engagement. Designed specifically for the interprofessional team, this curriculum bridges the gap between physical and mental health to optimize adherence and long-term outcomes. Gain the clinical confidence to screen, intervene, and document mental health metrics effectively within your existing workflow.
