I have a few subspecialities that include neurodivergent populations ( TBI, ADHD, ASD etc), teens, caretakers, and moms.
I specialize in treating underlying emotional concerns as they related to substance use, referred to as co-occurring disorders. Therapy should be a process where you feel safe exploring past experiences, and able to express all parts of yourself free from judgement. This often involves telling difficult stories, and exploring feelings like anger, resentment, loneliness, fear, or inadequacy. The therapist's role is to help you observe yourself in a compassionate and truthful way. My style is humorous, direct, and personable. I embrace authenticity, collaboration, and honest open communication.

Welcome and congratulations on taking the step of seeking out therapy; I find that contacting someone is the most difficult part. As you look for a therapist, I encourage you to first consider characteristics of the individual you believe you’ll connect with most and consider their education, licensure, and clinical approach second.

Have you had a head injury (or many) and haven’t felt the same since - mentally, emotionally, hormonally? It could be due to post-concussion syndrome. Do you experience chronic mental or cognitive health issues that aren’t helped with talk therapy, medications, or any other treatment you’ve tried? LENS, low energy neurofeedback system, might help! It helps to rewire the brain - stimulates new connections in the brain via neuroplasticity, which allow for long-lasting changes. LENS is great for most chronic mental and brain health conditions for kids and adults. Dr. Madrigal is licensed in OR & WA; in-person appts only in Portland.

When should someone seek treatment for a traumatic brain injury?
People should seek a diagnosis and treatment after a head injury, especially if they were unconscious, and an early diagnosis can lead to a better recovery. Signs of a concussion include headaches, nausea or vomiting, exhaustion, dizziness, vision problems, sensitivity to light and sound, problems with attention and memory, brain fog, unusual irritability or sadness, and unusual sleep patterns.
What’s the most common treatment for a traumatic brain injury?
Treatment for a traumatic brain injury will be different depending on the severity of the problem. For mild injuries, treatment may involve rest and over-the-counter pain or headache medication. For moderate or severe injuries, treatment may involve stabilization, medication, and rehabilitative therapies such as physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, cognitive therapy, and counseling.
How long does it take to recover from traumatic brain injury?
The recovery time for a traumatic brain injury depends on the individual and the severity and nature of the injury; the length of time spent unconscious is often an indicator of severity. Recovery time for mild injuries may be a week or two while recovery time for more severe injuries may be six months to two years. Research suggests that the vast majority of recovery occurs in the first two years after an injury; recovery after that time frame is less certain.
What if a traumatic brain injury is left untreated?
If a traumatic brain injury is left untreated, it can lead to long-term physical and mental health problems. Physical problems may include dizziness, headaches, vision, healing, or speech loss, and an elevated risk of dementia. Psychological problems may include impairments of memory, judgment, and decision-making, depression, aggression, poor impulse control, and personality changes.
