Specializing in Compassionate Neuronal Training

Anxiety

Specializing in Anxiety Treatment, Depression and anxiety for clients waking up to a busy brain or for those suffering from panic attacks, Neurogenesis can help calm the brain down on a subconscious level. It works to train neuronal networks in remapping areas of the brain that get over aroused which results in feeling anxious.

Relationships

Sometimes we don't understand why relationships can be so hard, and why the people we care about seem to misunderstand us. Neurogenesis can help a person understand their place in the world and in relationships. It reduces the noise in oneself so they may be more present for others and engage in relationships on a deeper level.

Adjunct Therapy

Because of the dramatic changes neurofeedback can have on a client we encourage therapists to send their patients to me so we may work in tandem for remarkable progress in areas where one has been stuck. Neurofeedback is not intended to replace talk therapy but can enhance healing work.

Depression

Depression can be a feeling of deep sadness or a unreachable desperateness for meaning. Neurogenesis brings the brain into balance so it can find it's't feel like we can cope with life. Neurogenesis brings the brain into balance so it can find it's optimum balance, resulting in a lighter, calmer ease in day to day life.

Trauma

Neurofeedback works at the subconscious level affecting the hindbrain (or fight/flight response) - this is where trauma often hides and rears its head in ways that make daily routines very difficult. Neurogenesis uses a particular type of neurofeedback that reaches to the centerma especially if it was a war or early childhood/developmental trauma. Neurogenesis uses a particular type of neurofeedback that reaches to the center of your subconscious to offload trauma and lighten the load of every day challenges.

Focus & Creativity

Bringing the best out of your brain is what we seek in setting goals, ambitions and desires. Optimizing your brain to cope with stress and maximize its ability to focus and create is what balancing the brain's' electrical activity can do to help bring out your best performance. When your in a flow and your feeling happy and relaxed you reach beyond what you cognitively think up. You have a connection to something deeper in your central nervous system. Life becomes a delight and a wonderful place. That's what it means to optimize your brain. Your brain knows where it wants to go...it doesn't always know how to get there. Neurogenesis neurofeedback (NFB) can help.
