Neurofeedback Therapists in Washington, DC
By integrating neurofeedback, my clinical services aim to deepen insight, create learning opportunities, and support well-being.
Neurofeedback provides the brain with a mirror image if its own functioning. Feedback is given when the brain experiences patterns of inefficiency, causing the client's brain to interrupt and reorganize, allowing for symptoms to drop away. The brain learns about its own reactivity and makes real time adjustments.

I am passionate about the work I do to assist individuals and couples to become the best versions of themselves. After 20 plus years, I believe difficult relationships can become better, I believe people who are feeling stuck can achieve forward momentum, and I believe learning and gaining knowledge about human behavior can improve self worth and improve all important relationships. With my extensive knowledge about the brain, I love teaching people to achieve sustainable change, and develop an in depth understanding of themselves that assists them in becoming happier and more productive.

I combine talk therapy using an IFS lens with neurofeedback - a powerful tool that helps individuals move through stuck places that impede change.
Seeking help takes courage. I am invested in working together toward making the changes you seek by creating a safe, trusting environment where we can explore the roadblocks holding you back. I practice in a holistic community where many modalities of treatment are used to promote healing. Do you feel "keyed up" most of the time or continue to behave in damaging patterns where you know the "why" but can't seem to make changes? Talk may not be enough.

How does neurofeedback work?
Neurofeedback is a type of biofeedback, meaning it provides real-time information about one’s physiological functions—in this case, brain activity. As they receive this feedback, clients are guided by a computer program, typically via visual or auditory cues, which aims to modify the brain patterns associated with their negative symptoms. Over time, proponents argue, clients learn how to better regulate their own brain function and improve the symptoms that cause problems in day-to-day life.
How effective is neurofeedback?
Some research has found that neurofeedback can help treat conditions like ADHD, and anecdotal evidence suggests that many people who undergo neurofeedback find it beneficial. However, some experts have expressed skepticism, arguing that the evidence in favor of neurofeedback is thin or may be due to the placebo effect. While the procedure is generally seen as safe and has few side effects, it is not typically considered a first-line therapy and is instead often recommended as an adjunct treatment.
What are the limitations of neurofeedback?
Neurofeedback is generally considered safe and most patients report manageable side effects, or none at all. However, the research on neurofeedback remains inconclusive, and some experts are skeptical that it’s as effective as its proponents claim. It can also be costly and may not be covered by insurance; thus, it’s important to confirm cost and insurance coverage before initiating a neurofeedback program.
How long does neurofeedback last?
A typical neurofeedback session lasts between 30 and 60 minutes. There is no set number of sessions needed for a course of neurofeedback. Before initiating a neurofeedback regimen, clients are advised to discuss the treatment timeline with their provider, as well as when they might expect to see results.
