What is Neurofeedback, and Why Now?
Because I have been working as a psychologist for many years and have a history of offering therapy, I often get asked, Dr. Cale, why Neurofeedback and why now – especially at this point in your career?’
There are several answers, but the most relevant are two facts. First, traditional therapies have a limited impact, particularly with dysregulated brains. That dysregulation is the cause of most mental health struggles, and thus, it’s no wonder that people get frustrated with years in therapy trying to change a neurologically stuck brain!
Secondly, Neurofeedback offers an approach to helping clients get much closer to the root cause of their struggles. The notion that we could have a treatment that reached deeper into the brain to support change and growth was fascinating.
So my next question is likely similar to yours: How does this technology do this?
Neurofeedback: Regulating Brain Waves for Optimal Mental Health
Neurofeedback works by helping your brain achieve a balanced state known as homeostasis. It specifically trains your brain to produce more beneficial brain waves, such as alpha or beta waves, while reducing the disruptive or problematic ones, like high beta waves associated with anxiety.
When your brain is in a balanced state, numerous mental health issues can be mitigated almost effortlessly. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, panic attacks, depression, ADHD, insomnia, or even that dreaded mental fog, Neurofeedback offers a path to clarity and calm.
Another significant advantage is the ease of change that Neurofeedback offers compared to other therapeutic techniques. Your brain gets immediate feedback, enabling quicker adjustments and faster results. This accelerated progress helps maintain motivation and reduces the time needed to see meaningful improvements.
Minimal Side Effects, Maximum Benefits
One of the standout features of Neurofeedback is its minimal side effects. Since this technology doesn’t rely on chemical intervention, you avoid the risk of unwanted reactions typically associated with pharmaceuticals. The procedure is painless, non-invasive, and safe, making it an attractive option for people of all ages.
Train Your Brain at Home
The latest innovation is the ability to do Neurofeedback training in the comfort of your home. We can now monitor, guide and consult with you/your child while training at home using professional-grade equipment. Results are not just similar but, in many cases, much better because you fit the training into your schedule, frequency is increased, and conditions are easily optimized. With this, the change process flows more easily.
