What is Neurofeedback?
Neurofeedback is a cutting-edge training system using EEG technology to promote brain growth and change. It involves analyzing brain electrical activity with a Quantitative Electroencephalogram (qEEG). Blue Skyview Counseling offers both in person and remote neurofeedback options.
How Neurofeedback Works
Imagine you are training your brain like you would train your muscles at a gym. During neurofeedback sessions, electrodes are placed on the scalp to monitor brainwave frequencies. The software then provides immediate visual or auditory feedback based on your brain’s activity.
When your brain meets certain goals—like inhibiting specific frequencies and enhancing others—the feedback is positive, and your brain is rewarded. For example, the screen might get brighter and the music clearer. When your brain does not meet the goals, the screen dims, and the music quiets. Over time, this feedback helps train your brain to self-regulate, positively impacting your central nervous system.
Neurofeedback can assist with a wide variety of issues
For those who are struggling with conditions such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, or even simply chronic stress, neurofeedback can be a lifeline. It offers a drug-free, non-invasive way to shape the brain’s functioning directly, steering it back towards harmony and health. Neurofeedback can assist with a wide variety of issues, including:
*Anxiety and Depression *Postpartum Depression and Anxiety *Attachment Disorder *Traumatic Birth History *PTSD *ADHD * Sleep Disturbances*TBI/Concussions *Flexibility *Anger/Irritability *Stress Tolerance *Fear *Impulsivity *Memory Issues *Behavioral Challenges *Autism Spectrum Disorder *Performance Issues *General Wellness/Optimization
How many sessions will I need to see a difference in my symptoms?
Every client is different. However, most individuals will start to notice some relief from symptoms within the first few sessions. Most individuals require at least 20 sessions for best and lasting results. Sessions are typically anywhere from 20 to 45 minutes. Two to three sessions per week is ideal for best results.
