Functional Remediation for Bipolar Disorder

Functional Remediation: The functional remediation program consists of 21 weekly sessions, each lasting 90 min. This intervention addresses neurocognitive issues such as attention, memory and executive functions, but it focuses even more on enhancing functioning in daily routine. The content of the intervention is based on ecological tasks to be performed in two settings, in the clinic as well as at home. Participants will be trained with exercises for memory, attention, problem solving and reasoning, multitasking and organization in order to improve their functional outcome. Most of the techniques are based on paper-and-pencil tasks and group activities.
