Psychoanalysis and the Broken Mind

The post-stroke mind needs to heal in order to regain the function of a life involving a personal past, a personal present, and a personal future. This seminar will discuss the trauma to memory pre and post-stroke, and will illuminate the exciting innovative techniques available in our community to save the mind and allow the patient to experience a meaningful future.

Learning Objectives:

After attending this session, participants should be able to:

1. Describe how psychoanalysis is involved in the healing process of stroke recovery.
