Invisible Disability: The Conundrum

Presented by Robert L. Karol, Ph.D. ABPP-RP, CBIST

Having a disability that may not be immediately apparent to others generates unique issues regarding personal conceptualization, response of others, and self-disclosure. This talk will address the issues involved in self-concept and response to disability. It will also address disclosure decision making and self-awareness. At the end of this talk you will have an understanding of the challenges of invisible disability, be able to explain the difference between acceptance and response to disability and be able to describe a continuum of disability identities.
