When choosing a neurofeedback service provider there are a few things that should be prioritized on your check list. Here are a list of tips and questions to ask yourself and the prospective Neurotherapist.
1. Are the Neurotherapist's skills and their neurofeedback equipment a good fit for my issues?
Suppose you are going to a Therapist or clinic for help with PTSD, panic attacks, fears, phobias, addictions or peak performance, the recommended and scientifically-proven protocol for these issues is alpha-theta. You don't need to know what alpha-theta protocol is to ask a potential Neurotherapist whether he or she provides these services. The Therapist should know what you are inquiring about, and whether their neurofeedback equipment can do this protocol or if they are comfortable and knowledgeable about this particular protocol. If this clinician is experienced with alpha-theta protocols, it doesn't necessarily mean that you would need to start out with alpha-theta training, but the vast majority of people with these goals should end up receiving alpha-theta training at some point.
2. What is your budget?
Neurofeedback is an investment in your well-being and most people find it extremely valuable, however, here are a few tips to keep neurofeedback therapy within your budget. When looking for neurofeedback therapy ask the Therapist whether he or she uses a brain map or a symptom-based approach to individualized protocol selection. While both methods have been proven to be just as effective, doing a brain map is quite a bit more expensive and there is no evidence to suggest it is better than the symptom-based research. If the Therapist replies neither a brain map or symptom-based assessment, then that Therapist is offering a one-size-fits-all approach, which can be effective, but may not be ideal for certain populations. For example, people who would benefit from alpha-theta protocol (see more details in the first question) would not receive it.
3. How far is the Neurotherapist from where I live or work?
Neurofeedback is most effective when you can commit to sessions at least two times per week - at least until session number 10. The general population often experiences clear results anywhere from 5-10 sessions. The range is dependent upon neurofeedback equipment, and the effectiveness of the protocol selection. Most people will achieve their goals in 20-40 sessions, but ultimately this number depends on the issues and goals of the client. It is for this reason that you will want to choose the best Neurotherapist closest to where you live or work.
