Therapeutic Process: What to Expect

Embarking on a neurofeedback journey is a collaborative and personalized experience. Here’s an overview of how the process works:

1. Initial Consultation

• Understanding Your Needs: We start with a detailed conversation about your symptoms, challenges, and goals. This helps me gain a clear picture of your current situation and what you hope to achieve.
• Assessment: Depending on your readiness, we may explore your life history and current state to identify the root causes of your symptoms.
• Setting Goals: Together, we define your therapy goals, which will guide the training plan.

2. Finding Your Optimal Response Frequency (ORF)

• Personalized Training: The first step in the actual training is to find your Optimal Response Frequency (ORF). This is the frequency at which your nervous system responds most effectively to the feedback.
• Real-Time Adjustments: During the session, I will stop the training every few minutes to check in with you and adjust the frequency based on your responses.

3. The Training Process

• Relaxed Observation: Your role during the training is simple – just observe. There’s no need to strive or consciously change anything. The goal is to notice how your body and mind respond.
• Therapist Guidance: I will closely monitor your EEG data as well as your physical and emotional reactions, making adjustments as needed to ensure the best results.

4. Between Sessions

• Self-Reflection: After each session, take some time to check in with yourself. Notice changes in your sleep, mood, focus, or overall well-being.
• Strongest Effects: The most noticeable effects often occur within the first two days after a session.

5. Duration and Progress

• Typical Course: A standard course consists of 20 sessions, as research shows that this leads to stable and lasting changes.
• Individualized Approach: Depending on your symptoms and progress, fewer or additional sessions may be needed. Most clients see significant improvements after 10 sessions.
• Final Phase: Once you’ve reached a well-regulated state, I often recommend one or two Alpha-Theta sessions to solidify the progress and conclude the therapy.

6. Ongoing Support

• Holistic Approach: My goal is to help you achieve not just short-term relief but long-term balance and resilience.
• Open Communication: Throughout the process, I’m here to answer your questions, address concerns, and celebrate your progress.
