My Memory Pal.com’s Cognitive Memory Training
Did you know when you go to the doctor to discuss your slipping memory that s/he will refer you to a clinically trained, state and nationally certified Speech and Language Pathologist? Speech and Language Pathologists have been conducting memory therapy for many decades; they are certified by the American Speech, Language & Audiology Association and require a Master’s Degree in Communication Disorders/Speech, Language Pathology this includes Executive Functioning where the working memory system is managed. They are beholden to rigorous state competency exams which result in a mandatory, state licensure with biannual renewal approval contingent upon continuing education .
One of the main areas of expertise for this group of clinicians is Cognitive Memory Training. Typically, this is conducted in a clinical setting, one-on-one and more commonly implemented for memory loss induced by aphasia and other neurological disorders.
Fortunately, fMRIs and the robust standards of research required by health insurance companies and hospitals, have afforded us decades of good, clean studies to prove the efficacies of preventative and restorative Cognitive Memory Training.
My Memory Pal.com was created by a speech and language pathologist with over 30 years experience in both preventative (aging brain, executive dysfunction and learning differences such as ADHD, ADD, ASD, NLD) and restorative/rehabilitative cognitive memory training (CMT) (head trauma, cerebral vascular infraction, “TIAs” transient ischemic attacks.)
How is My Memory Pal.com different from other programs?
Most over-the-counter apps are proving not to yield the successful and long lasting outcomes as compared to working one on one with a clinically trained, certified memory therapist created by professionals who understand the neurological decline and remedies of the memory system.
Certified clinical experts in Cognitive Memory Training create therapy with customized lesson plans tailor made for you that focus on maximizing memory using every modality possible including: visual formation of language concepts and connectors for easy recall, using nonverbal working memory to aid in giving you clues for the hard to access memory information, auditory processing training to better ‘grip’ and hold onto new information, mnemonics for easy recall tricks, and other well proven methodologies to grow your memory capacity.
My Memory Pal was designed by Jennifer Abbott Bulka, SLP CCC-Sp Cal. State license #14006, a licensed social cognition and executive function therapist for 30+ years who specializes in the pathologies and rehabilitation of language, memory, and Executive Function.
We are starting our pilot test in 2018 and are interviewing candidates who are truly committed to improving their working memory, short and long-term memory.
