Testimonials
“This is a must-have book for any clinician who seeks to provide best-practice interventions to treat clients with cognitive deficits. Not only does it supply the nuts and bolts to assess functional cognitive performance, it also offers detailed guidance that is essential for effective use of the Multi-Context approach. The information and practical clinical applications included in this book have been instrumental in my ability to incorporate this evidence-based approach in the clinic. Treating clients with cognitive challenges is complex and this book does a remarkable job of breaking it down in a way that is easily digestible. I’m thankful to have the breadth of guidance this book offers and know I will return to it again and again.”

Dr. Toglia has created a metacognitive intervention, the Multicontext Approach, grounded in clinical experience and theory, that can achieve what so few cognitive rehabilitation paradigms have done to date: generalize gains across real-world, personalized, and functionally-relevant daily activities. Dr. Toglia and Dr. Foster draw on their wealth of clinical and scientific knowledge of brain injury, awareness, and strategy instruction to provide this comprehensive and practical guide to implementing the MC approach. This will be an invaluable resource to clinicians working with patients with acquired brain injury.
