Bloomington,

Counselor, EDS
Bloomington Neurofeedback is dedicated to helping clients achieve and maintain emotional balance. With a keen interest in the brain, clients are ready to address foundational brain issues that underpin psychological challenges. Whether individuals aim to excel in their fields or seek relief from compulsive behaviors, Bloomington Neurofeedback is equipped to support them. Clients, ranging from 6 to 86 years old, may be experiencing flashbacks, academic difficulties, or simply desire improved relationships, better memories, enhanced sleep, and mood stability. The practice emphasizes the importance of effective therapy, allowing clients to actively participate in their healing journey. Utilizing quantitative electroencephalogram (qEEG) assessments and neurofeedback training, individualized treatment plans are crafted to meet each client's unique brain and psychological needs. By focusing on the nervous system, improvements become lasting. As the practice believes that what the brain learns, it retains, they promote balanced brains leading to balanced minds and relationships. While traditional therapy holds immense value, it can be less effective if the nervous system is overwhelmed. For those looking to cultivate a more balanced life, understanding that balancing the brain is the first step is essential. Bloomington Neurofeedback stands ready to guide clients on this transformative journey.
