Testimonial

Over the past few months, therapy has been a deeply supportive space for me — especially because I’m working with someone who truly understands traumatic brain injuries (TBI). For the first time in more than a couple of years, I’ve felt genuinely heard and understood, particularly in the context of being with a partner who has a brain injury. Each session has met me exactly where I am, responding to my point-in-time needs, and allowing me to release emotions and negative energy I’ve often carried alone. Dr Temitope Lawal, my therapist, listens, hears, reflects, and responds in ways that feel both grounding and empowering. It’s made a real difference in how I cope and connect — with myself and others.
