What is Traditional Neurofeedback?

   

Traditional neurofeedback is a natural, non-invasive approach for improving mental clarity, focus, and emotional resilience.  Traditional neurofeedback is a form of brain training that uses real-time monitoring of brainwave activity to help clients learn self-regulation techniques. This evidence-based approach is highly effective for addressing a variety of mental health conditions, such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, and sleep issues. By guiding clients into producing more balanced brainwave patterns, neurofeedback therapy supports lasting improvements in mental health and well-being.

​

How Traditional Neurofeedback Works

​

Traditional neurofeedback begins with a client interview to determine which symptom-specific protocols are recommended. During a neurofeedback session, the client's brainwave activity is monitored by placing sensors on the scalp to measure brainwave activity. Our specialized neurofeedback software provides live, real-time auditory "feedback" regarding this activity. This allows clients to understand and modify their brainwave patterns. Your brain associates the preferred brain-wave activity with positive outcomes, which makes the particular brain-wave activity more readily available when needed, and allows for greater flexibility in the brain. Over time, this training process leads to healthier, more balanced mental states, creating long-term changes in behavior, mood, and focus.​ Typically clients must attend multiple sessions for lasting benefits.​

​
