NeurOptimal Neurofeedback


What?
We all know that a healthy brain equates a healthy life. The NeurOptimal® dynamical neurofeedback system is 100% non-invasive and is designed to facilitate the brain’s own process of self-regulation.
How?
Sensors attached to the subject’s scalp detect turbulence within the central nervous system.  This information is “fed back” to the subject in the form of an audible signal which then triggers the brain’s natural self-corrective process. Because neurofeedback sessions significantly improve the brain’s ability to regulate, users report feeling calmer, more relaxed and centered.   The NeurOptimal® Personal Trainer delivers the same powerful sessions that its sister program, NeurOptimal® professional delivers, but packaged in a simpler interface meant for use in the privacy of your own home.  It is easy to use and the results are life changing.  We recommend training your brain 1-2 times per week.
Who?
Susan Cheshire Dermit Brown, Ph.D.Founder, Director, Senior Vice-President
Dr. Brown brings to the development of NeurOptimal® a varied path of careers and achievements in a variety of medical, psychological and academic environments. In brief, her accomplishments include six degrees (including two Masters degrees and a Ph.D.), numerous academic prizes and awards for academic excellence, publications in peer-reviewed scientific journals, a previous full-time academic position as Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychiatry at S.U.N.Y Stony Brook Division of Behavioral Medicine and (now inactive) licensure both as a Clinical Psychologist and as a Nurse. Despite all of this, Dr. Brown’s first love has always been her direct work with her clients. Dr. Brown’s role in the conceptualization, co-development and evolution of NeurOptimal® has been strongly tied to her belief that personal change does not have to be effortful to be effective and permanent, and much of her work has been to ensure that NeurOptimal® is not only safe and effective but easy to use. Dr. Brown consults from her home city of Victoria B.C., Canada.
