Karen’s Story

There is HELP and There is HOPE

In an instant your life can be changed and turned upside down and sideways too. I want you to know that there is help out there. There is hope for anyone who has ever suffered a TBI. You can get better no matter how long ago your injury was.

The TBI Journey

While I am not a doctor or medical professional I do believe that in our great medical system, there is a break. That break is for those suffering from a TBI. It is not a one doctor/ therapist can fix all, it has to be a multi- disciplinary approach. My goal is to help one person suffer less. I truly want anyone suffering from a TBI know that there is always HOPE.
