Rehab World Meets Counseling

Dr. Tomika Chappell, Psy.D, CCC-SLP, CBIS, re-builds brains. After two decades of treating the most severe head traumas, strokes, brain tumors, and neurodivergent differences in Major Hospital Level I Trauma Centers, Intensive Care Units (ICU), Neonatal Care Units (NICU), Acute Care, Long Term Care, psychiatric hospitals, and education Dr. Chappell applies her skills and background to re-build injured brains and help prevent healthy brains from aging as founder of Nowlogy, a division of Madequest Services.

If you’ve seen the hilarious series ‘Shrinking’ you have been introduced to the term ‘Jimmying.’ Much like Jimmying, in rehab we curate functional interventions in session and begin working on actual tasks with our patients for carryover from day one. Therefore, operating under the evidence based and results based ethical code of rehabilitation, has changed the way we treat mental health and expedited progress. 

If you have doubts about whether traditional therapy will work for you or have tried therapy and need another level, this is your stop. After completing a doctorate in clinical psychology with a concentration in neurology, I knew that I would not continue in the bare conventional practice of counseling. You see, I was already a licensed speech pathologist working predominately in rehabilitation of patients after impact to the head, brain tumors, strokes, and head and neck cancer, you name it, I’ve seen it. In rehab, the therapeutic process applies a research based kinesthetic approach for applied and functional therapy with our patients at ascending levels. Therefore I knew that more could be done than simply talking about theory and what someone should implement into their lives. As necessary as the field of Psychology is, the field has historically been hesitant to support trailblazers and innovators. Being sure to implement evidence based practice and do no harm, there is room for and a need to push the profession and related professions forward to expand impact. I am here to here to assist and support individual and families with routines, challenges and adjustments as life happens. Let’s see what is beyond the office walls.
