Treatment Options

The Center for Attention Deficit and Learning Disorders uses an assortment of treatment options and therapy methods to help patients get highly beneficial and lasting results. We base our treatment programs on proven neurofeedback and biofeedback techniques - allowing our patients to enjoy life-changing results for multiple conditions.

qEEG Brain Mapping

Your brain creates simple electricity through an electrochemical process, which allows it to carry out all of it's functions, including learning, communicating and managing emotions.  Brain mapping is a method of recording this electrical activity in the form of brainwaves and analyzing the results.

Brainwaves occur at different frequencies depending on what your brain is doing. For example, when your brain is under-aroused, as occurs when you are sleeping or daydreaming, your brainwaves will be slower.

EEG Neurofeedback

Neurofeedback Therapy in ActionJust like physical exercise helps the body stay healthy, toned and maintained, training the brain helps it function more effectively and overcome conditions and disabilities where the brain is not working the way it should. Neurofeedback is a technique we can use for directly training the brain to function more efficiently and to treat specific conditions.

Interactive Metronome

The Interactive Metronome® (IM) is a patented technology designed to enhance focus and concentration through a series of synchronized hand and foot exercises. The IM has proven to help children and adults improve their attention, learning abilities, coordination and timing and is an excellent resource treating a wide range of cognitive and physical difficulties.

SmartBrain Technology

Research confirms the most important ingredient in learning is the ability to focus on the material being learned. SmartBrain training exercises the brain's ability to sustain attention - as this increases the ability to learn increases.

Hemoencephalography (HEG)

HEG (hemoencephalography) is the study of blood flow in the brain by voluntarily controlling blood flow or oxygenation in specifically chosen areas of the brain.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), is an information processing therapy which contains elements of several psychotherapies including cognitive, behavioral, interpersonal, experimental and body centered approaches.

Heart Rate Variability Biofeedback (HRV)

Heart rate variability (HRV) is the beat-to-beat variations in heart rate or pulse, which occur naturally during all levels of activity, from running and jumping to sitting still or sleeping. HRV is intimately tied to a person's emotional state, and with biofeedback you can use HRV as a treatment option for a variety of mental and emotional conditions, including anxiety and depression.
