TBI Therapy Cincinnati Ohio

Because you deserve the best treatment for your traumatic brain injury. Don’t wait, reach out today

Life after a traumatic brain injury is rarely simple.
Even long after the initial recovery, you may be navigating memory changes, emotional swings, fatigue, or difficulties with attention and communication. Friends and coworkers might not see the challenges you carry, which can leave you feeling misunderstood or isolated.

At Hello Mental Health, we recognize that TBI is more than a medical event—it’s an ongoing adjustment that affects your mind, body, and relationships. Mental Health therapy can offer both practical strategies and emotional support as you find your footing again.

Why Dr. Helmer Figueiredo is Exceptional for TBI Therapy in Ohio

Dr. Helmer Figueiredo, PsyD, is one of the most experienced and effective therapists in Ohio for supporting people with traumatic brain injury (TBI). His deep training, human-first approach, and commitment to evidence-backed treatment make him a rare find when you’re looking for healing and real change.

  • Strong clinical credentials — Dr. Figueiredo holds a PsyD in Clinical Psychology and has been in practice for nearly a decade. He is licensed by the Ohio Board of Psychology and maintains rigorous training in multiple therapeutic modalities.

  • Specialization in TBI — He doesn’t just list TBI among many things; he specializes in it. He understands how brain injury uniquely affects cognition, emotion, identity, and relationships.

  • Evidence-based methods and breadth of expertise — Dr. Figueiredo uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), among other methods, to help clients regain functioning, manage mood changes, improve memory and attention, and rebuild a sense of safety and mastery over their symptoms. Because he works with these approaches within a trauma-informed, neuro-sensitive framework, people with TBI are not just treated symptom-by-symptom—they are supported as whole people.

Telehealth option for anyone in the state of Ohio

In-person + telehealth availability across Ohio — Therapy with Dr. Figueiredo isn’t limited by geography. He offers both in-person sessions (in Cincinnati) and telehealth throughout Ohio. That means more access, more flexibility, and more continuity.

Value placed on measurable outcomes and collaboration — He is someone who aims for clarity: what your goals are, what changes are possible, and how to track them. He works hand in hand, not from above. This all matters a lot because recovery after TBI rarely follows a straight line, and having a clinician who knows both the science and the lived experience makes a difference.
