Talking to us today about the link between brain-based injuries and mental health, is psychotherapist and clinical research associate, Michaela Olson.  Tune in to find out how Michaela identified the gap in the medical understanding of concussions and TBI and the treatment of those injuries, and how she moved into clinical mental health counselling to address this gap. We hear why Michaela believes that being educated about the biological root cause of your symptoms can set you on the road to recovery, and how she teaches patients to cope with their mental and emotional trauma. We discuss the link between concussions and PTSD, and why all trauma (no matter the cause) is distressing to patients. Join us today to learn all about the biology underlying the mental health issues that form part of post concussion syndrome!Join Concussion Connect!!
