Frequently Asked Questions
What is Neurofeedback?
Neurofeedback is basically physical therapy for your brain. You can learn more here.
Will Neurofeedback hurt? Are there side effects?
Most neurofeedback sessions are just providing information about your brain's performance, so there is not pain or discomfort. In some cases, we are sending a signal to your brain, but this signal is far less powerful than what is sent from a cell phone. Common side effects might be feeling tired since this process is like a work out for your brain. Similar to a gym routine, sore muscles are often a sign that you accomplished a good workout. In some cases, other side effects can occur, and that is why a thorough evaluation is very important to understand your needs and adjust the treatment accordingly.
How many sessions does it take to get results? How often will I need to come to the office?
Most people reach their goals in about 3-6 months on average. Regular training will help you and your brain learn the skills more quickly, so we recommend starting with two sessions per week for the first 1-2 months. We will reevaluate your progress together to come up with a balanced and effective care plan.
Will my insurance pay for this?
Insurance can sometime cover the initial evaluation and psychotherapy or wellness coaching visits. Unfortunately, no insurance company in Massachusetts covers neurofeedback or biofeedback. In some cases, clients have fought to be reimbursed, and with a lot of effort have won that battle. I am happy to provide receipts and documentation should you wish to pursue that option.
How much are your fees?
My standard fee is $125 per session. To help make the service affordable, we offer memberships with a month-to-month agreement which reduces the overall session rate.
