These SIG 2 Perspectives articles focus on counseling skills for working with persons with aphasia, “counseling+” activities for patients with mild cognitive impairment and dementia, and resilience in neurorehabilitation. Topics include counseling skills; counseling roles of SLPs; care partner training; and resilience in persons with acquired brain injury, aphasia, dementia, and Alzheimer’s disease.

First, Alyssa M. Lanzi, James M. Ellison, and Matthew L. Cohen describe “counseling+” activities across the continuum of care for persons with mild cognitive impairment and dementia. Second, Kristin M. Schaffer and Maya L. Henry provide a narrative literature review discussing research on counseling and care partner training in primary progressive aphasia. Third, Rebecca Hunting Pompon introduces a tutorial on using basic counseling skills for building the therapeutic alliance and navigating challenging conversations with persons with aphasia and their families. Finally, Aaron Rothbart and McKay Moore Sohlberg examine the key constructs fundamental to understanding resilience and provide examples of evidence-based practices that can be incorporated into neurorehabilitation practices to establish resilience.
