Neurofeedback for Trauma/PTSD

Neurofeedback is a non-drug, non-invasive, reward based system for training brain function. This brain training teaches the brain to produce calmer electrical activity which effectively addresses the effects of trauma. By conditioning the brain to produce calmer brain wave frequencies, the person feels quieter, more peaceful and emotionally regulated.

Research shows that trauma affects the brain, specifically the functions of the amygdala, hippocampus and the prefrontal cortex. Unresolved trauma can lead to fear, anxiety, panic, depression, and sleep issues. Long lasting effects can interfere with a person’s ability to work, learn and interact with others. Neurofeedback trains the affected brain functions to be better regulated.
