Neurofeedback for Anxiety

Neurofeedback for Anxiety? Yes, It Works!

People with anxiety have an overactive amygdala which causes them to stay in fight-or-flight mode when it is no longer necessary. While anxiety may have once protected you from danger in your environment, prolonged periods can cause you to carry unnecessary baggage. If there was never a timestamp put on a specific moment in the past, you can feel like you’re still living in that time. You may logically know that you are safe now, but your body still responds as if the situation is occurring right now.

NeurOptimal® can help with varying forms of anxiety from generalized to social anxiety. By calming your central nervous system, you can move from a state of fight-or-flight to rest-and-digest. As a result, your anxiety levels will naturally come down.

NeurOptimal® neurofeedback can help with symptoms such as:

• Feeling watched
• Nervousness
• Self-consciousness
• Restlessness
• Fatigue
• Difficulty focusing
• Headaches
• Muscle aches
• Worrying
• Increased heart rate
• Stuttering
• Difficulty making eye contact

Here are comments from some clients:

I had an amazing experience with the NeurOptimal system, it was easy to use, the music was so relaxing, and since I’ve completed the program my anxiety has significantly reduced and I have less intrusive thoughts and triggers. Suzanne was also incredibly helpful and knowledgeable and offered support throughout. I highly recommend!

I have been seeing Suzanne for Neuroptimal Neurofeedback for several months. Suzanne is a warm, kind and dedicated professional who truly shows great care and compassion in her work. Neuroptimal has made a big difference in my life specifically when it comes to anxiety. The sessions are non-invasive, relaxing and a nice break for an overactive mind. I highly recommend both Suzanne and Neuroptimal!
