Concussion Recovery Group

Welcome to the Concussion Recovery Group! Join us online to connect with others who have experienced concussions and are on the path to recovery. Whether you're an athlete, a student, or simply someone who has had a concussion (mild traumatic brain injury), this group is here to provide support, share experiences, and offer valuable advice.

Our online platform allows you to participate from the comfort of your own home. Share your story, learn from others, and discover practical strategies for managing mental fog, emotional instability, sensory sensitivities, and other symptoms that often follow concussions.

Together, we can navigate the challenges of recovery and provide each other with the encouragement and support needed to get back on track. Join the Concussion Recovery Group today and take the next step towards a healthier, happier future!

Registration is open to adult residents of Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Yukon, and Northwest Territories. On request, Dr. Newton will provide confirmation of attendance and a detailed invoice that can be submitted for reimbursement to your extended health insurance plan or motor vehicle accident insurance plan.

Participants will need access to a stable internet connection and the ability to use Zoom with an enabled web camera and microphone. To get the most out of this group, you should be willing to engage in group discussions and able to practice the suggested strategies on your own between sessions.

This group will be hosted by Dr. Virginia Newton, a Registered Psychologist with a practice in Clinical Neuropsychology. Participants will also have the opportunity to schedule separate individual sessions with Dr. Newton for cognitive testing, biofeedback/neurofeedback, hypnotherapy, and/or neuropsychological counselling. Details can be found on the Newton Neuropsychology website.
