My occupational therapist was able to give me some pointers and minor modifications to lifts that impact the wrists - overhead press and bench, mostly. Part of my problem was putting too much stress on the wrist, and not keeping it neutral when doing the lift. Since I became more aware of the problem, and I make sure to check my form, it hasn't been a problem for me.

I was even twisting my wrist laterally, which was a problem. I had to modify and hold the bar with my hands either closer together or further apart in some cases.
