Course Description: Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) is a complex diagnosis that has recently gained attention in the field of neurology. Formerly known as conversion disorder and addressed primarily from a psychiatric standpoint, recent research has explored the efficacy of a more holistic approach to FND combining psychological and physiological approaches. This course will focus on the key role of the speech-language pathologist in the treatment of FND. Identifying patients with FND is easily achieved by the neurologist on the team. This course will address the treatment techniques and approaches needed by FND patients that SLPs are uniquely qualified to provide. This session will provide tools and examples of familiar treatment practices to help successfully treat the FND population.
