Congruence | Tucson
A place of safety and connection after brain injury
Brain injury is not only an event in the brain — it affects the entire nervous system.
Symptoms can persist after brain injury when the nervous system remains organized around survival.
At Congruence, we work through Somatic Experiencing® and the relational presence of the herd and desert to support your nervous system’s innate capacity for self-regulation — allowing safety to return and restoration to unfold.
Congruence is the culmination of Peggy O'Kelly's journey to wholeness after a life altering Traumatic Brain Injury.
Her work integrates Somatic Experiencing®, nervous system science, and the relational wisdom of the herd and desert environment — creating a grounded, regulation-focused approach to healing after brain injury.
It is a place where lived experience and clinical understanding meet, supporting a return to safety and the nervous system’s innate capacity for self-regulation.

Private Sessions
Rooted in Somatic Experiencing® and informed by Polyvagal Theory, Peggy’s one-on-one sessions support nervous system regulation after brain injury. Working at the pace of the body — often in the relational presence of the herd and the regulating rhythm of the desert landscape — sessions cultivate safety and expand capacity, creating the conditions for protection to ease and regulation to return.
Sessions may complement ongoing care and are often integrated alongside physical therapy, neuro-optometry, occupational therapy, and other medical or rehabilitative support.
TBI Recovery Tools & Nervous System Support
Every traumatic brain injury is unique, yet the nervous system often carries common patterns of survival and adaptation. These tools are offered as practical support — resources that reinforce regulation, build capacity, and help the system stabilize over time.
Start by identifying your current nervous system state.
Our in-depth Nervous System Quiz provides a detailed exploration of autonomic patterns — how they operate, how they influence symptoms, and what supports regulation. You’ll receive guidance and curated resources aligned with your results.
For additional support, explore Peggy’s curated TBI resources designed to complement medical care and reinforce regulation in daily life.
Horse - human reciprocity at Congruence Sanctuary
The well-being of the herd is central to everything we do. Our horses live in a spacious, natural environment and receive thoughtful care that supports their physical and emotional health.
All offerings are grounded in nervous system attunement — fostering a shared language of safety and regulation between humans and horses. Your participation helps sustain the herd and the environment that make this work possible.
