I was in a car accident with trauma to the brain. I had to do physical therapy and after a brain MRI, cognitive brain therapy. I was not only in the bottom levels of memory, response, etc. but I also was depressed, irritated and in a place, I had never been. This left me very lost.

I didn't think this therapy would truly help. Boy, was I wrong. I am not 100 percent but it has turned my life back around.

The staff was outstanding from the friendly hellos, & scheduling at the front desk, to the amazing therapists who truly pushed me to learn how to manage my tasks and get better.

I was very unhappy walking in and I am still a work in progress but walking out on the last day, I feel like I can manage and continue to learn and improve.

Very impressed and happy that this definitely helps improve if you do the work. Thank you.
