Rehabilitation processes following physical injury or functional difficulties in childhood can be psychologically taxing for both child and family. In many cases, children and their families have to deal with physical modifications, pain, and changes in daily routine. Many also struggle with emotional and behavioral reactions, such as stress, anxiety and somatization. The Pediatric Neuropsychology and Rehabilitation Psychology research team focuses on psychological factors that enhance the psychological well-being of children and parents, reduce maladaptive coping style and symptoms, and improve rehabilitation outcomes.
