Neurofeedback: The Process
Neurofeedback details & fees.
1. Initial Consultation. The first step is to schedule an initial consultation. During this 45-minute session, we will determine whether you are a candidate for neurofeedback therapy. You will view a demonstration on neurofeedback training and have time to ask questions.
2. Number of Sessions & Fees. After the initial consultation, the neurofeedback sessions will usually be scheduled twice weekly (more as determined by your Initial Consultation). Sessions are approximately 45 minutes (with 30 minutes of actual training).
Please expect to undergo at least 20-30 sessions. The average number of sessions for most disorders is 40. Some conditions (e.g. autistic spectrum, bipolar disorder) are more difficult and may require 60 to 100. Many clients experience improvement before 10-20 sessions, yet it is unlikely that these improvements will be maintained without completing treatment. There is a cumulative benefit to the number of sessions undergone.
3. Intake questionnaire to complete. If neurofeedback is considered appropriate after our initial consultation, we ask that you answer a series of heath and lifestyle questions before you or your child starts the neurofeedback training. The questionnaires should be completed and returned to our office 4-5 days prior to the first training session.
The information provided on the questionnaire is extremely important because it helps determine treatment sites (on the scalp) and frequencies.
4. Assessment & First Training Session: At your first session, we will review our evaluation of your completed questionnaire and begin your training.
Payment options.
In addition to your personal check, we will gladly accept Visa and MasterCard as payment for our services.
Please call our office if you have any other questions.
