Neurofeedback therapy is a noninvasive procedure that measures a client's brainwaves and provides the client with real-time feedback about how the brain is functioning. Neurofeedback is used to help teach self-control over brain functions by indicating to clients how their brains react to certain triggers. Over time, patients learn to recognize when their brain is in a certain state. Then, they can learn to recreate the desired state, such as relaxation, or avoid undesired states, such as agitation, in their daily lives.
In office, I provide Zscore, Amplitude, Infra Slow Frequency neurofeedback and Hemoencephalography (HEG) biofeedback.
Neurofeedback has been beneficial for many symptoms associated with but not limited to:
Depression
Anxiety
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
Attentional Issues
Addictions
Peak Performance
Neurofeedback is offered in office as well as remotely.
Quantitative Electroencephalography (QEEG) brain mapping provides a noninvasive window into brain functioning to identity the source of symptoms of brain dysregulation. Mapping enables clinician's to seek appropriate interventions tailored to your specific brain activity patterns. This can lead to more effective and targeted protocols, ultimately improving your overall wellbeing.
