Neurofeedback
Neurofeedback Therapy in Frederick, MD
Training your brain toward greater self-regulation
Neurofeedback is a type of biofeedback that uses real-time information about brainwave activity to help the brain learn greater self-regulation. It is a non-invasive approach that uses sensors placed on the scalp to measure electrical brain activity through an EEG.
During a neurofeedback session, your brainwave activity is monitored while a computer provides immediate visual or auditory feedback. When your brain produces the desired activity, the feedback responds, allowing your brain to recognize and gradually practice more regulated patterns.
Think of it as a form of exercise for the brain. With repeated sessions, neurofeedback is designed to help the brain practice more efficient patterns of regulation and functioning.
Neurofeedback may be considered as part of a broader treatment plan for individuals experiencing concerns related to stress, attention, emotional regulation, anxiety, trauma, and other areas of functioning. Your therapist will determine whether neurofeedback is an appropriate fit based on your individual needs and goals.
