NeurOptimal® facilitates change.

I've been a psychotherapist since 1987. In 2004 I introduced NeurOptimal® Dynamical Neurofeedback® to my clients. Now, NeurOptimal® is all I do. Why? Because I've seen it be the missing piece for people who had worked long and hard to live the lives they wanted but couldn’t quite get to. It's wonderful to be able to offer brain training that is so effective and at the same time so safe.

Since 1999 there have been over four million NeurOptimal® training sessions. Currently over 50,000 current version sessions are run each month.

When you come for training in our New York City Upper West Side office, we will use NeurOptimal® Dynamical Neurofeedback® to take advantage of the powerful ability of your brain to take in information and use it to optimize itself. This can have you be at your best in the ways you have in mind, and perhaps in ways that might surprise you.

Most of us can identify aspects of life where we know we're not at our best. We may fall into patterns that get in the way or just have a sense that there's more. The state of the art brain training we will be doing provides feedback about the dynamical flow in your brain as it is happening. This may mean shifts into worry about past or present, low mood, loss of focus, lack of confidence — whatever those changes are for you. The brain looks at the real current circumstances, internal and external, and has the opportunity to assess if those changes it's making are useful or not useful. Your brain will use what it learns to optimize.

Over time, this new way of operating can become your new default way of being. For examples of how this looks in people's lives, read the Client Comments page.

Training with NeurOptimal® can have you at your best, in relationships, at work or school, on the playing field, in your life.

Because NeurOptimal® utilizes your brain's ability to organize itself — at your pace and in the order of change that is right for you — it is very safe. It's non-invasive — nothing is put into your brain. The system holds up a mirror so your brain can see itself. Our brains are experts at taking in information and using it to optimize. Your brain does not get the information we will be providing this immediately or this precisely anywhere else. Expect your brain to use it well.
