Webinar overview
Depression and anxiety can be a common experience for people affected by brain injury and other neurological conditions, for a number of reasons. In this webinar, Dr Ben Marram (Consultant Clinical Neuropsychologist) will discuss the symptoms of depression and anxiety and the biological, psychological and social factors that may contribute to these symptoms. He hopes to do this by sharing (in collaboration) the lived experiences of survivors of brain injury and what they found most helpful in their recovery, as well as what the current evidence base might tell us is helpful.
