Neurofeedback

We're committed to harnessing the transformative power of neurofeedback—an innovative approach to mental health and well-being. Unlike medications that merely mask symptoms, neurofeedback empowers your brain to naturally heal itself. It's a safe, effective, and non-pharmacological alternative that offers a path to lasting well-being.

Neurofeedback, also known as EEG biofeedback or neurotherapy, is a revolutionary form of biofeedback that directly engages with the brain. It provides real-time insights into your brain's activity, helping it heal through a remarkable process called neuroplasticity. This research-backed and non-invasive treatment enables your brain to rewire itself, enhancing its functionality.

The neurofeedback process typically involves around 20 sessions, providing ample time for your brain to establish and strengthen new pathways, resulting in long-lasting improvements.

Neurofeedback is a versatile and highly effective treatment suitable for individuals of all ages. It has demonstrated remarkable benefits across a wide range of concerns, including ADHD, anxiety, depression, autism spectrum, anger management, mood disorders, seizures, behavioral challenges, developmental disorders, PTSD, traumatic brain injuries, sleep disorders, and headaches/migraines.

Moreover, neurofeedback is increasingly utilized by athletes, professional sports teams, and high-level executives to enhance performance and competitiveness in their respective fields.

Neurofeedback sessions at Family Psychological Services are designed to be a relaxing and enjoyable experience. After the initial sessions to determine the optimal settings for your brain, you'll have the opportunity to watch a movie of your choice on Netflix.

During the session, four sensors are gently applied to your scalp. These sensors function like mini microphones, passively observing your brain's activity or brainwaves. The data collected is then processed by our specialized software and presented to your brain in a format it can understand. You may notice brief moments of haziness or cloudiness in the movie you're watching; this is the feedback that shows your brain where it's functioning incorrectly, enabling it to self-correct.

Neurofeedback is a non-invasive, research-backed treatment that empowers your brain to heal and optimize its performance, ultimately enhancing your overall well-being. We offer neurofeedback at our Agoura Hills and Ventura locations, and our dedicated team is here to guide you on your journey to a healthier mind and a more vibrant life.
