No more mystery. No more black magic. This course takes you 'behind the curtain' to unpack the real science of neurofeedback in a way that's accessible for both prospective clients and practitioners.
By the end of the course, you'll understand how neurofeedback works and the breadth of its possible applications, and you'll be equipped to seek therapy or therapeutic professional development with confidence that you're following the facts and in a position to get the best possible results.
Before you explore neurofeedback for yourself, your family, or your clients, you want to know:
Does it really work and does it have scientific backing?
What results can you expect from neurotherapy?
How safe is it and are there are any side effects?
What's involved in the sessions themselves?
When can you expect to see results?
How do you find a reputable practitioner?
Where should you start as a new practitioner?
How do I know which type of neurofeedback is best for me?
This course will answer these foundational questions and more, so you can make informed decisions about any future therapy or professional investment.
While mainstream medicine has yet to fully embrace neurofeedback as a first-line therapy, there is a mounting body of evidence to support what NFB practitioners have known for years—that neurofeedback can produce long-lasting, transformative results for clients with a variety of conditions.
In this 8-module course, world-leading neurofeedback expert, Dr. Perl, brings together over 25 years of clinical and teaching experience into a science-backed curriculum that will help you understand the merits of neurofeedback as a therapeutic option for a variety of conditions, and determine whether NFB is right for you, your family, or your clients.
