Evaluation & Treatment for Mild Brain Injury
Mild Traumatic Brain Injury (mTBI), Post-Concussive Disorder and PTSD
The well-experienced clinicians at ABTC utilize a very thorough, scientifically, evidence-based approach to the assessment and treatment of mTBI, Post-Concussive disorders and comorbid PTSD. We are familiar with and sensitive to the complexity of brain injury issues and overlapping symptoms which can typically result from motor vehicle accidents, sports and recreational incidents, blast injuries, slips and falls and other mishaps.
We utilize a skills-oriented, methodical protocol which is individualized to your unique situation. We approach each case with compassion, sensitivity and respect while working closely with your legal counsel to promote the most successful outcome in your individual injury situation and/or personal injury case. Our evaluative services have proven to be useful in many personal injury case settlements. We aim to rehabilitate brain-injured individuals by coaching, modeling, educating and helping restore functioning, relying on their innate strengths.
