Frequently Asked Questions

Most people experience neurofeedback as a calm and relatively effortless process. During a session, you are typically watching or listening to something while your brain receives real-time feedback based on its activity.

There is no need to consciously control or “try” to change anything. The brain responds naturally to the feedback and begins to adjust its patterns over time.

Some people notice a sense of calm or clarity during or after sessions, while others simply feel more like themselves. The process is gradual and builds with consistency.

Neurofeedback is a non-invasive process that works with the brain’s natural ability to learn and adapt. It does not introduce anything into the body. Instead, it provides information that allows the brain to adjust its own activity over time.

When guided appropriately, neurofeedback is considered a safe and well-tolerated approach. As with any process that involves learning and change, responses can vary from person to person, which is why individualized guidance and ongoing support are important.

Our approach is designed to be thoughtful, responsive, and aligned with how your brain is functioning throughout the training process.

Consistency is an important part of the neurofeedback process. Most people train several times per week, with sessions spaced to allow the brain to integrate and respond.

One of the advantages of home neurofeedback is the ability to train more frequently without the limitations of in-office scheduling. This often supports a more efficient and consistent training process.

Your training schedule will be guided and adjusted over time based on your goals and how your brain responds.

No. While some individuals seek neurofeedback to address specific patterns, many others use it to improve how they are already functioning.

Neurofeedback can support focus, clarity, emotional balance, and overall efficiency, as well as performance in demanding environments.

We work with a wide range of individuals, from those looking for support in specific areas to those who are simply interested in optimizing how they think, feel, and perform.

Neurofeedback is a specific type of biofeedback that focuses on brain activity and is sometimes referred to as EEG biofeedback.

Other forms of biofeedback work with the body’s physiological responses, such as breathing patterns, heart rate variability, and muscle tension.

At Texas Neurofeedback, our primary focus is neurofeedback, with additional biofeedback tools incorporated when appropriate to support a more integrated approach.

Home neurofeedback can be a very effective option for many individuals when it is guided by an experienced, licensed, and board-certified professional.

In some situations, particularly when more complexity is involved, in-office training may be more appropriate. We take the time to understand your situation and will offer an honest recommendation, including referrals when needed.

We are not limited to a single neurofeedback system or pre-set protocol. Instead, we draw from multiple approaches and apply experienced clinical analysis to design training based on your brain and your goals.

Your program is guided by over 35 years of clinical experience and evolves over time, allowing for a more individualized and responsive process.

Neurofeedback is a dynamic process, meaning that training evolves over time based on how the brain responds.

At Texas Neurofeedback, we use a range of neurofeedback approaches rather than relying on a single system. This allows for a more flexible and personalized training experience.

QEEG brain mapping is available at our Austin office, but not remotely.

When appropriate, it can provide additional insight into how the brain is functioning, including areas such as processing speed and network connectivity. This information can help guide a more targeted and personalized training approach.

Neurofeedback is an investment in how your brain functions over time.

Our home training programs are designed to allow for consistent, frequent sessions, which can support the learning process. Most people train several times per week over a period of months.

Pricing varies depending on the type of equipment we choose based on your history and goals, and will be discussed during your intake session so you have a clear understanding of your options.

In most cases, neurofeedback and biofeedback are not covered by insurance, particularly when services are provided remotely.

We are not contracted with insurance companies and do not bill insurance. We do accept HSA cards and can recommend financing options for those who qualify.

Yes. As licensed professional counselors in Texas, we are able to provide counseling services, including telehealth.

When appropriate, brief, solution-focused strategies may be integrated into neurofeedback training to support overall progress.

We are able to provide home neurofeedback services to clients who reside in Texas.

If you are located outside of Texas, we are happy to help you find a qualified provider in your area.
