Cognitive-Communication Disorder

Cognitive-communication disorder is a condition where a person has difficulty with thinking skills that support effective communication. This includes problems with memory, attention, problem-solving, and organizing thoughts, which can affect how they understand or express ideas during conversations, reading, or writing. It often results from brain injuries, strokes, or other neurological conditions. The individual might struggle to follow conversations, stay focused, or remember information, impacting daily interactions and activities. Treatment generally involves strategies to improve these cognitive skills and enhance communication abilities, helping individuals participate more fully in their personal and social lives.
