Success Stories

23 year old man name Jamieson, had an accident in which he was side-swiped by a semi truck on March 28th, 2024. Per his report, “After my car accident, I have difficulty with concentration and remembering the timeline of events. I have difficulty falling asleep and grinding teeth. During school studying and taking exams were more difficult due to focus issues and remembering of information. At work, I have difficult recalling the specifics that people have asked me to do and tasks that are assigned to me.”

His most severe symptoms in ranking were obsessive thinking/rumination, poor memory, and difficulty maintaining attention. His initial brain map noted extremely high global delta, theta, and alpha, and high occipital beta. His alpha dominant frequency was somewhat low. He also had extremely excessive inter-connectivity, indicating a very high level of brain inflammation.

After training, his brain map showed enormously positive changes. His delta, theta, and occipita beta were dramatically reduced to normal level. His global alpha remained high with eyes open, but improved with eyes closed. His alpha dominant frequency rose up to perfect levels. His interconnectivity mildly improved.

His symptoms also showed good improvement. Based on symptomatic tracking, he saw a 43% improvement in sleep, attention, memory, and rumination. After completing training, he was able to do much better in school and was even accepted into Stanford University.

My name is Jamieson, and after my car accident on March 28, 2024—when I was side-swiped by a semi truck—something changed in my brain.

I didn’t feel like myself anymore.

I struggled to concentrate and couldn’t remember timelines or details the way I used to. Falling asleep became difficult, and I started grinding my teeth at night. Studying and taking exams felt overwhelming because I couldn’t focus or retain information. At work, I found myself forgetting tasks people had just asked me to do, which was both frustrating and embarrassing.

The hardest parts were the constant obsessive thinking, my poor memory, and how hard it was to stay focused.

When I did my brain map, it finally explained what I was feeling. My brain was overstimulated, inflamed, and working inefficiently—stuck in a kind of mental overdrive. Seeing that was oddly comforting. There was a reason I felt this way, and it wasn’t just “in my head.”

After brain training, things began to change—dramatically.

My follow-up brain map showed my brain waves settling into healthier patterns. Even more important, I felt better. I slept better. I could focus again. My memory improved. The constant rumination quieted down. Overall, my symptoms improved by about 43%.

School became manageable again—and then something incredible happened.

I was accepted into Stanford University.

Getting my brain mapped helped me understand what was wrong, but training helped me get my life back. I finally felt clear, capable, and confident again—and that changed everything.

“Just when I thought the storm had taken everything—peace found its way home.”

Before neurofeedback, Jessica lived with panic, overwhelming worry, and psychogenic seizures (PNES) triggered by everyday noise and stimulation. Public places felt dangerous. Even simple errands could trigger a seizure. Other treatments provided little to no lasting relief.

Her anxiety was nearly constant, sleep was restless, and pain and fatigue made daily life exhausting. She felt trapped inside her own nervous system.

But Jessica showed up anyway.

Over seven weeks of neurofeedback, she committed fully to training and paired it with mindfulness, breathing work, and nutrition changes. Within just two weeks, she began to notice a shift. She tolerated noise better, feeling less overwhelmed, and building emotional and physical resilience.

By the end of her program, Jessica had changed her own life (10 is unbearable, 0 is symptom-free):

● Anxiety: 9 → 5
● Sleep problems: 7 → 2
● Focus/memory troubles: 7 → 3
● Mood swings: 6 → 2
● Fatigue: 8 → 6
● Seizures: 2–3 per week → only one total during 7-week program

She now drives with confidence, enjoys restaurants without noise-canceling headphones, socializes with ease, and feels more in control of her emotions.

Jessica says neurofeedback gave her the tools, but her transformation came from doing the work. She still practices breathing, meditation, and mindfulness to maintain her progress.

“Before neurofeedback, I was surviving. Now, I am thriving.”

If you’d come over to my living room a year ago, you probably wouldn’t have seen much calm.

I was living in a constant state of panic. My nervous system felt hijacked. Loud noises, busy places—even simple errands—could trigger a psychogenic seizure. Grocery stores felt dangerous. Restaurants were overwhelming. I carried fear with me everywhere I went.

I tried other treatments, hoping something would stick, but nothing gave me lasting relief. My anxiety was almost nonstop. Sleep never felt restorative. I was exhausted, in pain, and honestly felt trapped inside my own body—like my nervous system was running the show and I had no say in it.

But I kept showing up.

When I started neurofeedback, I decided I was all in. I committed to the training and paired it with breathing exercises, mindfulness, and some changes in how I ate.

By the end of seven weeks, my life looked completely different. Now I drive without fear. I sit in restaurants without noise-canceling headphones. I socialize. I feel present. I feel in control of my emotions again.

Before neurofeedback, I was surviving. Now… I’m thriving. And I never thought I’d say that out loud.

Samantha originally came in to support her husband through a difficult mental health crisis. At the time she too was struggling with sadness, memory problems, fatigue, and difficulty focusing, yet she pushed her own needs aside.

Through neurofeedback and self reflection, Samantha discovered a long standing belief that she was never good enough. Letting go of that belief helped her regain confidence and emotional stability. She began challenging herself intellectually again, learned new skills, and felt happier in her marriage.

By the end of her training, Samantha reported complete resolution of every symptom. Her focus, memory, mood, and communication all returned to where she wanted them to be. She left the program feeling strong, hopeful, and certain that she truly is enough.

My name is Samantha. I’m 65, and when I first walked through the door, I wasn’t there for myself.

I came to support my husband during a very difficult mental health crisis. At the time, I told myself I was fine. I pushed my own needs aside, even though I was feeling sad, exhausted, forgetful, and unfocused. I thought, I’ll deal with myself later. Like so many women do, I stayed strong and kept going.

But quietly, something in me was slipping.

As I went through neurofeedback and spent time reflecting, I began to uncover something I hadn’t fully seen before—a belief I’d carried for most of my life: that I was never good enough. I didn’t even realize how deeply it had shaped the way I thought, felt, and showed up for myself.

Letting go of that belief changed everything.

As my brain began to regulate, my confidence returned. My emotions felt steadier. I started challenging myself intellectually again and learning new skills—not because I had to prove anything, but because I wanted to. I felt lighter, clearer, and more present. Even my marriage felt happier and more connected.

By the end of my training, every symptom I came in with was gone. My focus came back. My memory returned. My mood lifted. I could communicate clearly again and trust myself.

I left the program feeling strong, hopeful, and deeply grounded in something I’d never fully believed before:

I am enough.

And now, I finally know it.

Just two weeks after a stroke left her struggling to speak, Sheryl began neurofeedback training with us. Her words were slow and slurred, reading was difficult, and she feared she wouldn’t be able to return to her customer service job.

Over six weeks, through targeted neurofeedback and structured cognitive challenges, Sheryl regained remarkable language ability. Her speech became clearer and faster, she could remember and write long strings of numbers again, and her spelling and reading skills returned dramatically.

By the end of training, Sheryl returned to work with renewed confidence. She credits neurofeedback, and her own daily practice, for helping her rebuild abilities she thought she might never get back.

My name is Sheryl. I’m 65, and two weeks after my stroke, I was terrified of what my future might look like.

I struggled just to get words out. My speech was slow and slurred. Reading was difficult, and writing felt almost impossible. I worked in customer service, and I honestly didn’t know if I’d ever be able to return to my job. I was scared that the part of me that communicated, that connected with people, might be gone for good.

That’s when I began neurofeedback.

Over the next six weeks, I committed fully to the training and to the daily cognitive exercises I was given. Little by little, things started to come back. My speech became clearer and faster. I could read again without struggling. I was even able to remember and write long strings of numbers—something I never thought I’d do again.

Each small win gave me more confidence.

By the end of my training, I returned to work feeling capable and hopeful. I could communicate clearly, think quickly, and trust my brain again. Neurofeedback gave me the support my brain needed—but my daily practice helped rebuild abilities I thought I might never get back.

Today, I’m back doing what I love, and I’m deeply grateful for the second chance I didn’t think was possible.

Tim first came into our office in early 2016, about ten years ago now. He had been struggling with overwhelming symptoms for the majority of his life and had seen nearly a hundred doctors with very few real answers or guidance.

He was struggling with depression, fatigue, suicidal ideation, low self-esteem, poor stress responses, poor appetite, lethargy, OCD, overanalysis, terrible sleep quality, and reported around 50 concussions throughout his lifetime.

He came in looking for one thing: answers. His first brain map finally connected his brain function with many of his symptoms, bringing relief and clarity he hadn’t experienced before.

His first brain map revealed extremely high alpha and beta, dysregulated delta, and 100% abnormal beta asymmetry, with his brain dominance almost completely right-sided. These findings explained issues like emotional and cognitive disengagement, poor sleep, and very high anxiety.

Relieved to finally have answers, Tim returned to our office annually for brain mapping through 2020 to monitor his brain health. He also completed two full rounds of neurofeedback, totaling 59 sessions.

We saw him again in early 2026 for a new brain map after he had undergone additional extensive treatments, including TMS and surgery to help him breathe properly for the first time in his life. He shared that while he was finally starting to feel better, the journey had felt like he’d “gone through hell.”

While the changes in his brain maps over the years were not always what he expected, seeing measurable progress gave him a greater sense of awareness and control over how treatments and lifestyle changes were affecting his brain.

In his words, “Brain mapping has given me insight into how well my brain is functioning and areas that could improve. It’s very interesting to observe how the brain functions.”

Of our practice, Tim shared that the most positive aspects of his experience were “excellent service, competently administered.” We’ve loved working with Tim over the years and look forward to seeing even more progress in the future.

Trisha came to neurofeedback with a quiet worry many people carry as they get older: What if I lose myself? She noticed her memory wasn’t as sharp as it once was, and she feared the stress of everyday life might make things worse.

Over the course of the training, Trisha realized something that shifted her whole outlook. Her thoughts, her feelings, and even her forgetfulness were not signs of something “wrong,” but a normal part of aging. With that realization, her anxiety began to soften.

The hands-on puzzles strengthened her confidence. The educational videos taught her how the brain ages and adapts. The breathing exercises helped her slow down, reset, and feel in control again.

Today, Trisha sleeps more peacefully, feels less anxious, and trusts her mind again. She now encourages others to try neurofeedback, saying it helped her feel calmer, clearer, and more hopeful about aging.

My name is Trisha. I’m 78, and when I first came in, I carried a quiet fear I didn’t talk about much.

I was worried about losing myself.

My memory wasn’t as sharp as it used to be, and I could feel the stress of everyday life getting to me. Each little lapse made me wonder, Is this the beginning of something serious? That fear sat with me more than I realized.

As I went through neurofeedback, something important shifted—not just in my brain, but in how I understood myself. I learned that my thoughts, my emotions, and even my forgetfulness weren’t signs that something was “wrong.” They were part of being human. Part of aging. And most importantly, they were manageable.

That realization alone eased so much of my anxiety.

The hands-on puzzles helped rebuild my confidence. The videos taught me how the brain changes and adapts over time, which made me feel informed instead of afraid. And the breathing exercises gave me a way to slow down, reset, and feel steady again whenever I needed to.

Now, I sleep more peacefully. I feel calmer. I trust my mind again.

When I forget something or get stuck, I don’t panic. I take a breath, step away, and come back to it later—and that’s enough.

Neurofeedback didn’t just help my brain; it helped me feel hopeful about growing older. I tell others all the time—it helped me feel calmer, clearer, and more at peace with myself.

Concussions—especially from sports—are often dismissed as minor injuries, yet repeated head trauma can lead to lasting cognitive, emotional, and physical effects. When Zachary arrived at our clinic, at just twenty years old, he had already experienced more concussions than most people do in a lifetime.

He had at least sixteen concussions, starting at age seven. Football shaped his identity from childhood through high school, and by his final seasons he appeared strong, unstoppable, and built like a varsity athlete.

But beneath that strength, changes were unfolding. His memory faded, focus slipped, motivation disappeared, grades fell, and his dream of academic and athletic scholarships slowly dissolved.

The effects went beyond academics. His body began to struggle with digestive problems, appetite loss, tremors, hair loss, severe weight loss—55 pounds in just four months—and insomnia. Anger, depression, and suicidal thoughts followed, leaving a once gifted young man feeling isolated and lost.

Over two years, Zachary sought help through counseling and medications for mood, anxiety, sleep, and pain, but nothing brought lasting relief.

His turning point came when he began rebuilding from several directions at once. He changed his nutrition, slowly reintroduced exercise, intentionally worked on sleep, and began neurofeedback brain training.

The process wasn’t instant or easy, but over many months, something remarkable happened. Zachary began to feel like himself again. Pieces of memory returned. Motivation and emotional connection resurfaced. Physical strength rebuilt. Anger eased, and hope returned.

A year into this journey, Zachary says he is only about halfway to where he wants to be—but compared to where he started, the change is enormous. He has regained parts of his identity he thought were gone forever.

Most importantly, he has regained belief in himself and in his future.
