The Ghost in My Brain

Clark Elliott, Ph.D.

A first-person account of concussion recovery that documents the role of Dr. Donalee Markus and cognitive restructuring in a long-term healing process.

Clark Elliott chronicles an eight-year recovery after traumatic brain injury and explains how brain plasticity, neuro-optometry, and cognitive restructuring helped restore high-level function.

This is the book most often associated with Designs for Strong Minds® and remains the best entry point for people who want to understand how the work connects to real-world recovery.
