Short Term Memory, Mood Swings, Lack Of Reasoning Process. History Of Having Stroke. Guide

My husband had a stroke a few years back (tia) and he has problems with his short term memory, mood swings are obvious, and I am trying to encourage him to go to an occupational therapist that may be able to redirect some things, but I can't get him to bulge. His reasoning process I believe has been affected. What can I do?
