Kayla Henkel

Program Director

Kayla’s Brain Balance journey began in 2012. Her brother had previously enrolled in the Brain Balance program to help him with the challenges that come with Autism. After watching his success in the program, she decided with her parents to enroll to address her own challenges with learning, focus, and anxiety. Shortly after finishing the program, Kayla received her B.S. in Special Education from North Carolina Wesleyan College. Kayla then worked at Brain Balance of Cary, NC as both part-time Assistant Director and Academic Coach. Several years later, Ronnie and Gayle opened Brain Balance of Naples. Kayla then transferred to work as their Program Director. When the opportunity arrived, she was promoted to Center Director. Kayla now has 10 years of experience working in-center. Her mission is to help as many students as possible!

Hunter Nall

Student Ambassador

Hunter Nall is an ambassador for Brain Balance of Naples. He is a former Brain Balance student where he attended the program at the Cary, North Carolina location. He chose to be an ambassador so he could set an example for those who are new to the Brain Balance program. Before going through Brain Balance, Hunter says that it felt like things he wanted to say were like words stuck in a cage in his head. Hunter says that he attended Brain Balance to improve his senses which would help him with life. He explained that he did not like the diet portion of Brain Balance. “I could not eat dairy for awhile so my plan was that when I could eat it again, I would record myself eating cheese. After that I would watch the video while eating more cheese.” The outcome of Hunter’s session at Brain Balance was that he was able to focus more, read faster, improved senses, made friends and now has better social skills. He says that he now ask girls on dates and can drive.
