Neurofeedback Treatment in New Haven County CT

Neurofeedback is a safe, effective, and medication-free option which helps children and adults improve mood and attention. This brainwave training gets to the root of the problem by teaching your brain to work in a more effective way, so you can have long-lasting results.

How Neurofeedback Can Help

At Center for NeuroPotential, treatment begins with understanding how the brain is functioning—not simply managing symptoms. Our clinical approach is led by Dr. Palmer, who is BCIA Board Certified in Neurofeedback and holds Diplomate status in QEEG analysis. This specialized training, combined with QEEG brain mapping and evidence-informed neurofeedback, allows us to take an individualized, data-informed approach to care and develop targeted neurofeedback protocols based on each client’s unique patterns of brain activity.  Below are some presenting concerns that may be helped with neurofeedback.  

  • Anxiety
  • ADD/ADHD
  • Depression
  • Trauma/PTSD
  • Emotional regulation
  • Headaches
  • Sleep problems
  • Concerns associated with autism, including sensory regulation difficulties
  • Post-Concussive Symptoms
  • Improved Attention and Focus for the Workplace or Athletics

Neurofeedback and Your Brain

Neurofeedback is a type of biofeedback in which individuals are trained to improve their brain function by changing their brain’s electrical activity, or brain waves. With Neurofeedback training sessions, your brain is encouraged to repeat healthy patterns of brain waves. With repeated training, the goal is to support more efficient patterns of brain activity over time.

Our Clinical Process

Effective neurofeedback begins with understanding the individual—not simply selecting a protocol based on a diagnosis. At Center for NeuroPotential, our clinical process is designed to provide a more individualized understanding of each client’s brain function, symptoms, history, and treatment goals.

1. Initial Consultation and Clinical Assessment

We begin by learning about your concerns, symptoms, treatment history, and goals. This helps our clinicians determine whether neurofeedback may be an appropriate option and what additional assessment may be helpful before beginning treatment.

2. QEEG Brain Mapping

QEEG brain mapping provides objective information about patterns of electrical activity in the brain. Rather than relying on symptoms alone, this information gives our clinicians another layer of data to consider when developing an individualized neurofeedback approach.

3. Individualized Treatment Planning

There is no single neurofeedback protocol that is right for every person. Your assessment findings, QEEG data, clinical history, symptoms, and goals are considered together when developing your treatment plan.

Our neurofeedback program is led by Dr. Amy Palmer. Her advanced training informs our approach to QEEG interpretation, neurofeedback protocol development, and clinical decision-making throughout treatment.

4. Neurofeedback Training

During neurofeedback sessions, sensors monitor brainwave activity while specialized software provides real-time feedback. This process is designed to help the brain learn more regulated patterns of activity over time. Sessions are tailored to the individual rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach.

5. Monitoring and Ongoing Clinical Decisions

Neurofeedback is an ongoing clinical process. We monitor each client’s experience and progress throughout treatment and make adjustments when appropriate. Our goal is not simply to complete a predetermined number of sessions, but to continually evaluate how the individual is responding and use that information to guide care.

Additional Services to Support Neurofeedback

At times, it is recommended that Counseling be part of the overall plan for helping you be the best you can be. Our clinicians are highly skilled in providing support and teaching coping skills that make a difference in your life and well-being.  Counseling, also known as psychotherapy, is available for children and adults.
