8 Prototypes

8 Prototypes

Protype 1

Affective

Affect refers to the feelings that we can experience as part of our everyday lives. We experience affect in the form of moods and emotions. Mood refers to the positive or negative feelings that are in the background of our everyday experiences. Emotions are brief, but often intense, mental and physiological feeling states. CCSTUDO can help you understand the difference between moods and emotions and also help develop tools in order to monitor and manage the changes in moods and emotions that occur following a concussion.

Prototype 2

Behavioral

Following each one of my concussions, I experienced a sudden change in behavior. Applying classical conditioning, operant conditioning and association, I was able to shape my behavior towards a positive recovery. CCSTUDIO can help you with creative solutions for adapting to the changes in behavior that follow a concussion.

Prototype 3

Cognitive

Cognition is referred to by psychologists as the mental activity of processing information and using that information in forming judgement. Following my concussion, I experienced changes in cognition and problems with memory and attention. CCSTUDIO can help you understand the role of memory registration, storage and retrieval. CCSTUDIO can also help you explore explicit memory, implicit memory and episodic memory after a concussion.

Prototype 4

Headache

Following my concussions, I experienced and quickly understood the debilitating results of concussion related headaches. CCSTUDIO can help you navigate through the debilitating impact of tension, cluster, migraine and post traumatic headaches. Chronic headaches is primary concern following any concussion.

Prototype 5

Vestibular & Ocular

Following my concussion, I experienced Benign Positional Vertigo, Diplopia, Photophobia, Visual Agnosia and impairments with visual tracking. CCSTUDIO can help you identity day to day challenges associated with the vestibular and ocular changes that occur following a concussion.

Prototype 6

Psychomotor

Stress and chronic fatigue were a common result of overstimulating environments and sensory overload. In my experience, noise sensitivity and tinnitus made completing basic tasks more demanding. Conductive aphasia, perseverative speech and verbal apraxia were conducive to elevated stressors. Sensory overload was compounded by confusion caused from complex environments. CCSTUDIO can help you understand how sensory overload limits your ability to manage your concussion symptoms.

Prototype 7

Sleep

Sleep is critical to recovery and changes in sleep patterns and circadian rhythm are common following a concussion. CCSTUDIO knows how restorative sleep can improve day to day functioning. CCSTUDIO can help you explore intrinsic and extrinsic factors that may be preventing restorative sleep.

Prototype 8

Psychoeducation

Interpreting insightful information is overwhelming, especially when you have a limited mental and physical capacity for absorbing new and novel information. CCSTUDIO recommends a simple approach to begin with; narrow research towards reducing inflammation and improving digestion. I can share with you tips that have helped me with my recovery and rehabilitation.
