Feasibility of a Cognitive Intervention for Youth Post Concussion

"In the CO-OP intervention participants are first assisted to identify 3-5 occupation based goals which then become the focus of the intervention sessions. Over the course of the 10 intervention sessions, participants are guided to learn and practice problem solving using a metacognitive strategy, Goal-Plan-Do-Check applied to their self-identified goals. Study therapists use 'guided discovery' an iterative technique to facilitate problem solving by the participant to develop plans to work toward their goals and to evaluate their progress. Intervention takes place in the location that is most meaningful for the participant's selected goal (e.g. home, school, playground etc.). Participants are provided with a work book to track progress."
