About the host
Hello! My name is Nick, and I am a mental health professional out of Washington State, working as a licensed mental health counselor. For several years now, I have been facilitating TBI Support Groups on Hey Peers, and would like to expand myself to being certified on here too.
Motivation for help
My motivation to help is centered around my empathy for those that have struggled with finding themselves following a major life change. I have experienced it myself and it is something that can really benefit from simple social support.

Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Support Groups

Washington State

September 2024 Update: The Washington Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS) is working diligently with HeyPeers to continue offering virtual support groups for those who have experienced a traumatic brain injury.  Virtual support groups are temporarily on hold but will be available soon.  We know these support groups are an important part of connection, education, and engagement for the TBI community and appreciate your understanding as we get them up and running again.  If you have any questions, please email dru.aubert@dshs.wa.gov.

 

Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Strategic Partnership Advisory Council of Washington State provides Support Groups through the Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS) that emphasize connection, education, and engagement in life after sustaining a TBI.

 

Our Support Groups are predicated on the concept of a person-centered approach that can aid in the development of long-term knowledge and generic problem-solving skills to help attendees overcome barriers to sustaining a fulfilling life.

 

These Support Groups may provide a therapeutic effect, but they do not provide therapy and instead focus on delivering organized bodies of knowledge and resources for the betterment of attendees.
