How To Treat Progressive Bulbar Palsy

Psychotherapy

Because of the often severe limitations progressive bulbar palsy can place on a patient's quality of life, physicians commonly recommend psychotherapy. It can certainly be frustrating to struggle with basic tasks such as eating and communicating, and seeing a therapist to cope with these challenges can greatly improve a patient's mental well-being and overall quality of life. Psychotherapy allows progressive bulbar palsy patients to discuss these challenges and have an emotional outlet for their frustrations. It can also give patients the opportunity to learn coping mechanisms and strategies for dealing with the stress, anxiety, and depression that can be present in association with a motor neuron disease.
