Software & Protocols
We use BrainPaint for Neurofeedback, developed by Bill Scott.
Increased Flexibility & Stability within key brain networks is our goal.
The EEG sensors are used to target key brain networks; the attention network and the default mode network. The signals from the EEG readings are sent through an amplifier into a computer whose software renders (in real time) your brainwaves which your cortex “watches” through your open eyes and/or your ears. The brainwave activity is represented visually by evolving fractals and aurally by musical sounds. The fractals morph at over 20 to 40 images per second. Over the sessions, your brain is using this information and learning to shift from a more under-aroused or over-aroused state into a more neutral state of relaxed light focus.
Together with you, we create measurable goal areas of focus to track your progress over the course of the sessions. Based on these goals and the progress you experience over the sessions we will adjust the protocols to focus more on the networks of interest for improved flexibility and stability.

- Less Insecurities
The video below shows a series of still images of some fractals from someone’s neurofeedback session. Though in an actual session the fractals are fluidly evolving and changing rapidly (over 20 images per second), this gives an idea of what you may see during your sessions.
