Rehabilitation psychology

Rehabilitation psychology is a branch of psychology that helps people with disabilities learn to live more independent and fulfilling lives. It focuses on helping those with physical, mental, and emotional impairments cope with the challenges that come with living with a disability. This can include things like helping them develop new skills to improve their quality of life and find resources to help them adjust to their new life. Rehabilitation psychologists work with individuals, families, and communities to provide support and training to help people understand and cope with their disabilities, and find ways to be successful.
