Group Therapy

Put the pieces together, heal together

Community-based learning and support using the evidence-based A.H.E.A.D. model

What We Offer:

Structured group therapy using the A.H.E.A.D. curriculum—a widely-implemented, evidence-based model developed by MINDSOURCE Brain Injury Network specifically for brain injury survivors.
Education across five core domains: Awareness (understanding your injury), Help (building your support system), Emotions (managing feelings and mental health), Activities (rebuilding meaningful routines), and Dreams (reconnecting with purpose and future goals).
Peer connection and shared learning with other brain injury survivors who understand the invisible challenges, identity shifts, and daily navigation of life after injury.
Practical skill-building for executive function, emotional regulation, communication, relationship management, and community reintegration.
Guided discussions and exercises that normalize your experience, reduce isolation, and provide concrete tools for managing cognitive, emotional, and behavioral changes.
Affirming space for survivors at all stages of recovery to process grief, celebrate progress, and support one another through the ongoing journey of brain injury.

Why the A.H.E.A.D. Model Works:

Developed and refined by MINDSOURCE Brain Injury Network, the A.H.E.A.D. curriculum is used nationwide in hospitals, rehabilitation centers, and community programs. This structured, evidence-informed approach addresses the multifaceted impact of brain injury through education, skill development, and peer support. Group participants consistently report decreased isolation, improved self-awareness, better coping strategies, and renewed hope for their lives after injury.

Therapeutic Retreats

Immersive day-long experiences for education, community, and real-time skill practice

What We Offer:

All-day virtual retreats designed specifically for brain injury survivors. We combine psychoeducation, community connection, practical skill-building, and space for your specific questions.
Flexible participation that honors brain injury realities: Come and go throughout the day as you need to rest, manage fatigue, or tend to other needs, then rejoin when you're able.
Real-time practice and application of coping skills, communication strategies, emotional regulation tools, and cognitive techniques, not just learning about them, but actually using them together.
Expert-led education on brain injury's impact on emotions, relationships, executive function, identity, and daily life, with time built in for your questions and individualized guidance.
Peer connection and community building with other survivors who truly understand the invisible struggles, identity shifts, and ongoing navigation of life after brain injury.
Tangible takeaways including personalized coping strategies, practical application directions for your specific challenges, resource lists, and ongoing connections with retreat participants.

Why Virtual Retreats Work for Brain Injury Survivors:

Traditional all-day workshops aren't designed for brains that fatigue easily, need processing breaks, or require flexibility. Our virtual retreat format removes travel barriers, allows rest when your brain needs it, and creates concentrated time for deep learning and connection, all from the comfort of home. Participants leave with both knowledge and community: new understanding of their brain, skills they've actually practiced, and connections to people who really get it.
