Minding the Brain: Brain Injury’s Relationship to Depression, Anxiety and Addictions

Jun. 1. 17 @ 10:45 am - 12:15 pm

Brain injury is a complicated issue for many reasons, firstly because the brain controls everything in our bodies – mental, emotional, physical and cognitive therefore each injury is unique.  Brain injury often presents with co-occurring issues such as depression, anxiety and addictions, and, similar to mental illness, it can be the subject of misapprehension, prejudice and stigmatization.

 

Dr. Maté will be presenting during the Pushor Mitchell Okanagan Symposium on Brain Injury in support of BrainTrust Canada. The overarching theme of the day is a Collaborative Approach to Brain Injury and its Concurrent Issues: Addictions, Homelessness, Mental Health and Violence…from Chaos to Hope.
