Lauren Beriman

Lauren is one of our most recent members of the Advisory Board. Lauren has a lived experience suffering head injuries suffered as a child and then later in life after a series of accidents but one quite serious being hit by a car.  It wasn’t until much later that she connected the dots and discovered she’d been living with ongoing concussion symptoms since childhood. Misdiagnoses made life confusing and challenging, but they also shaped the person she is today.  Lauren is incredibly grateful to the Concussion Legacy Foundation for walking with me every step of this journey.

Lauren’s mission is to use her lived experience to advocate for survivors of domestic violence, concussion, and FND. Sharing her journey allows her to support others, raise awareness and help people understand that while concussion recovery can be complex, it is possible with patience, guidance, and community.
