What to Expect

BEFORE THE FIRST SESSION:
There is a lot of information on the Internet about neurofeedback. I suggest that people do as much research as feels right to them before coming in. Jim Robbins' book A Symphony in the Brain is a great background and a fun and easy read. Dr. Stephen Larsen's book entitled The Healing Power of Neurofeedback is also good background material .For more information on specific modalities that we use here, I suggest consulting the Journal of Neurotherapy.

THE FIRST SESSION (1½-2 hours):
The first session will be a lot of discussion. You will most likely have many questions, and I will have questions for you based on your health history. We will then do a short evaluation, treatment, and discuss the findings. You'll relax in a comfortable chair and I will monitor brainwaves and assess function using electrodes (sensors) that I'll move around the head with a mild conductive paste.

THE SECOND SESSION (1½-2 hours):
Each session starts with discussion of the prior weeks experience, then we move on to evaluation and treatment. This session will mainly be evaluation and will conclude with a short treatment.

THE THIRD SESSION (1½-2 hours):
Discussion of progress and the last of the major evaluations. Discussion of data gathered thus far and plan for further treatment. Short treatment session.

SUBSEQUENT SESSIONS (1/2 hour, 45 minutes, or 1 hour):
Discussion of progress and treatment.

WHAT YOU MIGHT FEEL:

The effects from neurofeedback may be immediate or they may come on slowly depending on each individual

Because brain issues manifest in so many ways, effects from neurofeedback vary with each individual. We will address whatever you walk in with… headaches, depression, allergies…

Much of what we do in this work is based on the client's reaction to treatment. Your only responsibility as the client is to report any and all reactions to treatment. This information is helpful when we plan future treatments.
