Our Story

About the Founders 

Chelsie Huval, MS, CCC-SLP
Chelsie is a speech-language pathologist with extensive experience working with adults impacted by brain injury, stroke, dementia, and cognitive-communication challenges. Throughout her clinical career, she recognized a consistent gap in care once formal therapy services end—leaving individuals and families without continued guidance, education, or meaningful community engagement.

NeuroCollective grew from Chelise’s commitment to bridging that gap by creating a space where rehabilitation-informed support, education, and real-life application can continue in a way that feels accessible, empowering, and human. Her work emphasizes functional skills, cognitive readiness, and community reintegration, while honoring each individual’s goals, identity, and lived experience.

NeuroCollective was founded through a shared belief that healing, growth, and quality of life are best supported when care extends beyond traditional models. Our work is grounded in the understanding that neurological health, wellness, and community connection are deeply intertwined—and that individuals deserve support that honors the whole person.
