Targeted Rehabilitation for Head Injuries & Chronic Symptoms

A Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) or concussion—whether caused by a motor vehicle accident, workplace incident, fall, or athletic impact—can significantly alter how your brain functions. Lingering symptoms such as severe brain fog, persistent headaches, memory issues, chronic pain, and mood changes can affect every area of your life.

At Psychogenix, led by Lawrence G. Lyons, PhD, Clinical Psychologist, we specialize in non-invasive, data-driven neurological care. With over 25 years of experience evaluating closed head injuries and serving as a consultant for forensic, disability, and medical-legal cases, Dr. Lyons combines precise diagnostic mapping with advanced neuro-technology to help restore function and quality of life.

Comprehensive TBI Diagnostics & Evaluation

Recovery begins with an accurate assessment of brain function and physical capacity.

  • Quantitative EEG (QEEG) Brain Mapping: Painless mapping that records electrical brainwave frequencies to identify damaged, underactive, or inflamed neural networks caused by head trauma.
  • Neuro-Cognitive Evaluations: Comprehensive testing that measures executive function, memory retention, attention span, and processing speed.
  • Disability Impairment Ratings: Specialized medical-legal and neuropsychological evaluations designed for injured workers and legal claims to accurately determine functional impairment.
  • Physiological & Balance Assessments: Utilizing specialized equipment (such as Medi-Balance Pro and InBody) to evaluate the physical and vestibular impacts of head trauma.

Advanced Non-Invasive TBI Therapies

Once mapping and evaluation are complete, we create a custom rehabilitation plan using non-pharmaceutical, cutting-edge technologies:

1. Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) & Soterix Technology

Delivers targeted micro-currents through scalp electrodes to excite damaged neural pathways and encourage cellular repair following brain trauma.

2. Photobiomodulation (Vielight & LightStim)

Utilizes near-infrared light energy to penetrate cortical tissue, stimulating cellular ATP energy production and helping reduce post-concussive brain inflammation.

3. Neurofield & PEMF Cellular Therapy

Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) technology that helps calm overactive nerve signals, promoting healing and pain relief for chronic head, neck, and spinal trauma.

4. Integrated Psychotherapy & EMDR

Dr. Lyons pairs advanced neuro-technologies with goal-oriented therapies—including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, biofeedback, and Neuro-linguistic Programming (NLP)—to address post-traumatic stress, anxiety, and emotional challenges stemming from injury.

Dedicated Support for Workers’ Compensation & Legal Claims

Navigating a head injury while managing a Workers’ Compensation claim or personal injury case requires a practice that understands the medical-legal system.

  • Workers’ Compensation Direct Billing: We accept California Workers’ Compensation insurance directly and work closely with case managers to authorize necessary evaluations and care.
  • Attorney & Physician Collaboration: We regularly partner with treating physicians and legal representatives to provide detailed impairment documentation and collaborative care plans that support optimal patient outcomes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a concussion and a TBI?

A concussion is classified as a mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). While it may not show up on a standard structural MRI or CT scan, a concussion can cause functional disruption to neural pathways, which can be measured using QEEG brain mapping.

Does Psychogenix handle California Workers’ Compensation cases?

Yes. Dr. Lyons has extensive experience conducting pre-surgical clearances, neuro-cognitive evaluations, and ongoing rehabilitation for injured workers under California Workers’ Compensation.

Can non-invasive neuro-technology help years after an initial head injury?

Yes. Brain plasticity allows neural networks to reorganize and strengthen even long after an initial trauma occurred. By measuring current brainwave patterns with QEEG, we can target specific areas for stimulation and rehabilitation.

What a Visit Looks Like

Evaluation is comprehensive and covers psychological, cognitive and psychosocial functioning. From there we plan treatment, pairing cognitive behavioral therapy with neuromodulation and neurofeedback technology in one facility.
