dc.description.abstractThe purpose of this capstone research project is to explore research surrounding traumatic brain injury (TBI) and its negative impact on emotional regulation. This capstone will focus on research pertaining to major, minor and multiple TBIs, as well as a focus on diffuse axonal injuries. To start, a background of TBI and persistent post-concussion syndrome (PPCS) will be presented along with a purpose statement, the relevance of contribution to the field, and a reflectivity/positionality statement from the writer. Chapter two will provide a deeper analysis into what a TBI is, what emotional regulation is, and the lasting effects of a TBI. There will be discussion surrounding degeneration of core neural tracks, Alexithymia, and impacts on psychological and cognitive functioning. Chapter 3 will discuss potential interventions for TBI recovery and support from a mental health perspective, including utilization of narrative therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT).
