This is a podcast for people with brains who want to empower themselves and take control of their health and steer themselves to optimal brain function and repair.
Exploring the future of neuroplasticity, neurorehabilitation, and brain optimization to improve recovery potential and human potential.
Episode 71 - Empowered Community, Courses, and Qualified Assistance for Neurological Recovery... FREE ACCESS!
Welcome back to the Adventures in Brain Injury Podcast! In this very special and short episode, I introduce Jacki D'Aries, and our partnership in the Empowered Neuro Community.
The Empowered Neuro Community is an online social platform and classroom that we've created to provide resources, therapy tools, instructional videos, and a supportive community for brain injury survivors, their loved ones, and as a resource for practitioners.
It is designed to be affordable with a free membership option. A paid version is also available for under $20/month, which provides additional access to live interviews, on demand classes, and practitioner connections.
So who is Jackie D'Aries, and why am I partnering with her?
Jacki has experience as an occupational therapist in various settings, from hospital to post acute. Like me and so many others, Jacki saw several gaps in the standard model of neurorehabilitation, which was unsettling. This became the inspiration behind creating an online program to support caregivers and survivors beyond traditional healthcare setting. This is what has now become Empowered Neuro, and for the forseeable future, we will be hosting a livew event every week.

Episode 70 - Post-COVID Recovery
Amy Derksen, ND is a former competitive athlete and Naturopathic Physician with a full scope of practice in Washington State since 2003. She did her undergraduate studies in biochemistry and her medical post-graduate training with Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt, MD, PhD for over 2 years. She specializes in working with both Autism and chronically ill patients, including Lyme disease.
Dr. Derksen has been involved in teaching various topics with Dr. Klinghardt since 2004, and has also been a speaker at Autism One, LIA, Academy of Comprehensive Integrative Medicine, American Academy of Restorative Medicine, TFIM and Hope to Heal Lyme conferences. She is one of the first Naturopathic Physicians to become a Fellow with the Medical Academy of Pediatric Special Needs, working to broaden her skills for working with autism. She has additional training in PANS/PANDAS, ILADS, mold illness, genetics/methylation, LDA/LDI allergy treatments, peptide therapies for recovery and BHRT.
As someone who struggles with an autoimmune disease and recovery from significant post-COVID reactions in 2021 extending to now, she can relate with the frustrations when your body no longer feels like something you have control over. Her typical patients tend to be those who have already seen several doctors and specialists, and who have relatively “normal” labs that don’t match with the symptoms they are experiencing. She incorporates a system of testing called Autonomic Response Testing in addition to labs and history to help navigate what can feel like a complicated puzzle of why you aren't getting well.
