Can you Actually Develop Super Powers After a TBI? Dr. Nourse Thinks So!
Hello Warriors and Battle Buddies!
Welcome to A BATTLE WITHIN, Episode 094.
Today Drew and Terry are joined by special guest, Dr. Jessica Nourse
Dr. Jessica Nourse is someone who worked with Terry during her most recent concussion back in 2016-2017 as a Speech Pathologist and was critical in her recovery process. In fact the relationship is about to re kindle on that front.
Today she joins us to tell us about her own personal head injury in childhood. She explains about how she adapted during those times and how it has helped her be a better doctor for her patients. Jessica is part of the team at Neuroscience Institute for Brain Injuries at Lancaster General Health/Penn Medicine.
During our chat, Jessica also talks to the fact that she believes you can develop super powers after injury, how talking in picture stories is useful and the importance of understanding that this is a transformation and she even offers some strategies.
She is also a Yoga Instructor with certification to teach Love Your Brain classes.
