Rehabilitation Psychologists

Rehabilitation psychologists specialize in helping individuals with disabilities or chronic health conditions achieve optimal functioning and improve their quality of life. They work with people who have physical, cognitive, emotional, or developmental disabilities resulting from injury, illness, or other factors.

These psychologists assess clients’ strengths and challenges, develop personalized treatment plans, and provide counselling and support to help them adjust to their conditions. They also collaborate with healthcare professionals, rehabilitation specialists, and community resources to ensure comprehensive care for their clients.

Rehabilitation psychologists work in various settings, including hospitals, rehabilitation centers, outpatient clinics, and private practices. They play a crucial role in helping individuals overcome barriers, regain independence, and enhance their well-being through therapy, education, and advocacy.
