Abstract

Purpose The aim of this tutorial is to provide speech-language pathologists with foundational knowledge of poststroke depression comorbidly occurring with aphasia. Given the negative effect of depression on functional outcomes and mortality, it is crucial that speech-language pathologists possess this knowledge in order to better advocate for and treat their patients. Method and Results Three areas of complementary expertise (speech-language pathology, psychology, and neurology) collaborated on this tutorial to address the following areas: (a) provide terminology associated with depression and related mood disorders, (b) describe the potential underlying pathophysiology of depression in the general population, (c) provide an overview of our existing understanding of comorbid poststroke depression and aphasia, and (d) summarize current assessment methods and interventions for poststroke depression in adults with aphasia. Conclusion Given the compounding impact aphasia and depression have on rehabilitation outcomes, it is imperative that speech-language pathologists understand terminology, assessment, and treatment practices for depression.
