Paralyzed but working

When Nina Muhonen was just 17 years old, she had a spinal cord injury from a diving accident that left her completely paralyzed. After an extremely difficult period, she was able to get her life back.

Today, Tobii Dynavox solutions are a part of the tools that make a huge difference in Nina’s life – giving her better possibilities for communicating with her surroundings – both at work and privately.

Nina Muhonen is a trained behaviourist and cognitive therapist, and works as a coach and supervisor at Hermods, where she guides job seekers into the labor market or towards further education.

“The accident led me to change my plans of becoming a lawyer. Instead, I studied behavioural science with a focus on psychology, an area where I felt I could make the most difference,” says Nina.
