The "Like-Minded" Series, facilitated by Elchanan Schwarz, LMHC, Director of Crisis Intervention and Caregiver Support, provides support and education for caregivers. Two informative sessions for wives of brain injury survivors took place this summer.
The first, "Stress Management for Caregivers" was presented by Dr. Eva Mihovich, Senior Psychologist at Rusk Rehabilitation.
Dr. David Biderman, Supervisor of Psychology at the Brain Injury Day Treatment Program at Rusk presented the second, "Strategies for the Upcoming Yamim Tovim".
Participants were very pleased with the information and support gained from the gatherings and look forward to the continuation of the series this fall. For information about upcoming groups, please contact Elchanan Schwarz at eschwarz@binausa.org or 718-645-6400 ext. 25.
