NEURO PRACTICE
Assess
The choices of assesment measures is typically decided in an initial diagnostic interview. This enables us to select out the most likely tests, and symptom checklists to adequately document and differentially diagnose. Lastly, a quantitative electro-encephlagram (qEEG) is given. The qEEG enables us to identify the unique neurological contributions to your struggles.
Plan
If the assessment identifies the presence of a disorder, you will receive a referral to a physician. Regardless of severity, the qEEG can be used to identify areas of the brain that can be a target of neurotherapy With your agreement, the physician may receive a copy of the qEEG and psychological testing report as well.
Practice
Once the planning stage is complete, biofeedback, neurotherapy/ neurofeedback and psychotherapy will commence. Most individuals respond exceptionally well to mindfulness and relaxation techniques. This can be augmented by heart rate training known as HRV.. Neurotherapy therapy can be used to improve the ability to self sooth and thereby minimize the presence of anxiety. Other forms of neurotherapy may be used to improve regional and network neurological functioning. Lastly, more traditional forms of psychotherapy may be provided to address emotional and behavioral challenges experienced by those with anxiety problems. The most common of these techniques is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).
