LYB Mindset Facilitator

About me: I work as a coach, mentor, educator and speaker to brain injury survivors, their caregivers and clinical support providers. Drawing insight from my own experiences as a TBI survivor, I provide inspirational talks on the journey after a life altering brain injury, and provide practical strategies during my coaching sessions with clear, kind and informed support to help clients navigate their own journey. My mission is to share experiences and learned techniques to promote healing, acceptance and forward momentum.

Why LYB: My draw to LoveYourBrain began when I heard one of my support group participants enthusiastically talk about his attendance at a LYB yoga retreat. I could see how greatly he benefited from his experience. When one of my sons later gave me a LYB t-shirt and placed a donation in my name to their organization, I researched LYB more thoroughly. Impressed by the work they were doing and understanding my own appetite for helping those with brain injuries, I knew I would one day cross paths with LYB. Since then, I have attended virtual LYB Mindset programs as a survivor/participant, attended their Facilitator training, and am excited now to be one of their program leaders.

Superhero: I have met incredibly resilient, brave and committed people whenever I have facilitated a brain injury support group, coached an individual with a brain injury, or spoken to an audience at a brain injury conference. Hands down - these are my superheroes.
