I have a M.S. in mental health counseling and am currently studying to take my brain injury specialist certification exam through the Brain Injury Association of America. I have managed group homes for individuals with brain injuries and have worked at a nationally renowned rehab center as a daily living skills specialist (Courage Center, now Sister Kenny in Golden Valley, MN). I am a certified health and life coach and an avid fan of promoting natural health. My approach to brain injury treatment utilizes the concept of "neuroplasticity" or the brain's ability to heal and create new pathways in the brain. I use the modalities of Dr. Caroline Leaf and Dr. Rick Hanson (I'm currently going through his professional course for positive neuroplasticity training). My brain injury services are personalized as brain injuries are different for each person and the impact on one's life is different for each person. Brain injuries include: trauma (hit to the head or car accident), non-traumatic (stroke, virus, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's, dementia, meningitis, ecephalopathy, etc). I also help individuals who have chronic illness or disability to manage their emotional reactions to their body which, in turn, helps their body to feel better. Our mind controls our brain and our brain controls our body. Contact me for a free consultation for more information on how I can personally help you or your loved one!
