We know it is easier said than done. In Part Two, Willa talks about emotions after a brain injury from her experience as a neuropsychologist and assistant professor at UTSouthwestern. Many survivors have a negative outlook for their future, but Willa asks them to focus on what they can control, utilizing coping skills: including writing a journal, conditioning the brain for deep sleep, and exercising daily. It is important to not feel that they must be brave for others. Willa will explain the ABCDE approach that she uses for counseling and other sources to receive help, such as professional associations, life courses, conferences, and even chatgroups on Facebook.
