Hi, I'm Holly!
I know it can be hard to feel hopeful during these complicated times. Relationships and life transitions can be hard, especially if you are a young person. If you identify as LGBTQIA+, feelings of anxiety and past trauma might be extra amped up. Or maybe you're just feeling numb, off, or find yourself having a hard time concentrating. Maybe someone who cares about you has noticed a change and has concerns. Perhaps, secretly, you're a little concerned, too.

The therapeutic relationship is one of the most important factors in healing - I find myself in strong connection with those navigating attachment trauma and the ways it can impact identity exploration, relational dynamics, self-efficacy, and the ability to cope with the challenges of daily life. This commonly manifests in mood disorders like depression and anxiety, personality disorders, neurodivergence, and post-traumatic stress. My intention is to support self-awareness, the development of more helpful coping strategies and the creation of a life that aligns with your personal values.

Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Therapists
When should someone seek treatment for a traumatic brain injury?
People should seek a diagnosis and treatment after a head injury, especially if they were unconscious, and an early diagnosis can lead to a better recovery. Signs of a concussion include headaches, nausea or vomiting, exhaustion, dizziness, vision problems, sensitivity to light and sound, problems with attention and memory, brain fog, unusual irritability or sadness, and unusual sleep patterns.
What’s the most common treatment for a traumatic brain injury?
Treatment for a traumatic brain injury will be different depending on the severity of the problem. For mild injuries, treatment may involve rest and over-the-counter pain or headache medication. For moderate or severe injuries, treatment may involve stabilization, medication, and rehabilitative therapies such as physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, cognitive therapy, and counseling.
How long does it take to recover from traumatic brain injury?
The recovery time for a traumatic brain injury depends on the individual and the severity and nature of the injury; the length of time spent unconscious is often an indicator of severity. Recovery time for mild injuries may be a week or two while recovery time for more severe injuries may be six months to two years. Research suggests that the vast majority of recovery occurs in the first two years after an injury; recovery after that time frame is less certain.
What if a traumatic brain injury is left untreated?
If a traumatic brain injury is left untreated, it can lead to long-term physical and mental health problems. Physical problems may include dizziness, headaches, vision, healing, or speech loss, and an elevated risk of dementia. Psychological problems may include impairments of memory, judgment, and decision-making, depression, aggression, poor impulse control, and personality changes.
