Treatment Options Dr. Silverman’s treatment protocol involves
a multi-modality program to achieve the most beneficial and lasting
results. Included in this approach may be:
EEG Biofeedback (Neurofeedback) is a natural approach that trains an individual to sustain attention while remaining focused and relaxed. It is used for many conditions and disabilities in which the brain is not working appropriately.
Neurofeedback trains a child or adult to concentrate while receiving visual and auditory feedback from a computer. Those requiring academic and perceptual remedial training may engage in various activities such as reading, writing, arithmetic, listening, concentration and memory skills. This method can be effective in reducing excessive slow brain wave activity while increasing alert, focused, fast brain wave activity, resulting in significant improvements in attention and concentration.

Home Training for S.M.A.R.T. Brain Games For your convenience, we can provide this NASA patented S.M.A.R.T. (Self Mastery And Regulation Training) Brain Games technology, exclusively licensed, for your home or office use. Our in-home training includes:
IM trains the brain to plan, sequence and process information more effectively through repetition of precise activities. The program typically includes 15 one-hour sessions over a 3 to 5 week period. A series of hand and foot exercises are preformed while IM's patented auditory guidance system progressively challenges individuals to improve their accuracy as they actively attempt to match the computer generated beat. The difference between the individual's response and the reference beat is measured in milliseconds and a score is provided. A low ms. score indicates improved timing and overall performance. For more information, please watch this video on the Interactive Metronome (Windows Media Player Required). Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) EMDR is an information processing therapy that integrates elements of many effective psychotherapies, including cognitive, behavioral, interpersonal, experimental and body centered approaches. Eye movements are the most commonly used stimulus to reprocess and produce changes, but auditory tones, tapping and other types of tactile stimulation may be used. After EMDR, clients report that emotional distress is gone or greatly reduced, and they have gained important cognitive insights. This typically leads to spontaneous behavioral and personal changes.

Conditions We Treat:
“I struggled with the tensions of running a large company. Using EEG biofeedback, Dr. Silverman helped me dramatically increase my ability to focus on details and manage stress. My family and staff noticed the changes after just a few sessions, and these improvements have been lasting.” -Michael
