Cognition is about learning.

the key to improving your daily life is not about drinking a magic shake or taking a brain-charging pill--it is about 'working out' your brain to enhance your cognitive wellness. Re-teaching your brain to think and being comfortable in who you are, is critical in your journey to restoring your cognitive health to where it once was.

Those with cognitive impairment are often living with symptoms which are unseen. You may understand or know about feeling "down" or "manic", but what is not commonly understood accompanying those symptoms is impaired cognition.  Your brain health is critical to every aspect of your life: socially, at work, at school, and in all daily functions. If you're living with cognitive impairment associated with concussions, ADD, ADHD, depression, bipolar disorder, eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, or schizophrenia, it is likely that your thinking skills are negatively impacted. Impairments can be seen in attention, memory, processing speed, and problem solving, with severity being relative to the course of your illness, your age, and other social-environmental factors. 


At RCHI Education Group, our LINK Program allows you to develop a positive attitude towards life’s most complex circumstances, and then develop skills and strategies to overcome them.

We work with you to develop realistic goals and link them to your cognitive health. This allows you to create strategies and skills based on your individual abilities, which you can then apply them directly to your daily life. Cognitive Remediation is an intervention targeting neuro-cognitive deficits using scientific principles of learning with the ultimate goal of improving functional outcomes. Its effectiveness is enhanced when provided in context (formal or informal) that provides support and opportunity for improving everyday functioning (Saperstein & Kurtz, 2013).
