Train Your Brain to Regulate Itself

Neurofeedback uses real-time brainwave monitoring to help clients self-regulate attention, mood, and arousal. Through operant conditioning, the brain learns to shift into more balanced, flexible, and resilient patterns—without medication or invasive techniques.

What Is Neurofeedback and How Does It Work?

Neurofeedback, also known as EEG biofeedback, is a noninvasive therapy that provides live feedback on your brain’s activity. With repeated sessions, your brain learns to modify its own patterns, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, ADHD, trauma, insomnia, and more.

Key Benefits

Improves Self-Regulation

Enhances the brain’s ability to shift between emotional and cognitive states as needed.

Reduces Symptoms Without Medication

Often used for ADHD, anxiety, PTSD, and insomnia without pharmaceutical intervention.

Enhances Focus and Attention

Supports cognitive performance in children, teens, and adults.

Promotes Nervous System Resilience

Helps the brain recover from chronic stress, trauma, or dysregulation.

Treatment Goals

Identify Brainwave Imbalances

Use EEG mapping or training to target underactive or overactive regions.

Increase Flexibility and Stability

Teach the brain to shift fluidly between alertness, rest, focus, and calm.

Reduce Hyperarousal or Hypoarousal States

Improve tolerance for emotional and sensory input.

Support Long-Term Neural Adaptation

Reinforce new brainwave patterns over multiple sessions for lasting results.

Neurofeedback Therapy for Focus, Trauma, Sleep, and Mood Regulation

Neurofeedback uses computerized monitoring and audio-visual feedback to help the brain retrain itself. By encouraging healthier electrical patterns, this therapy supports regulation at the root level—improving symptoms from ADHD to chronic anxiety.

Watch a film or play a game that pauses or dims when your brain drifts from desired states.

Calm State Training

Practice entering and maintaining calm brainwave states to reduce anxiety or panic symptoms.

Focus Enhancement Sessions

Reinforce attention and task completion by rewarding beta brainwave activity.

Sleep Rhythm Conditioning

Use slow-wave training protocols to improve sleep onset and quality.
