Biofeedback and Neurofeedback in Talk Therapy
Psychologists and psychotherapists are not all just having people sit in a chair or lay on a couch to just have people talk to them about their problems. They are using evidence-based, science-based tools to help them address the body as well as the mind. Science is proving that the body is involved in problems like anxiety, PTSD, and trauma. It’s not all in the mind. The mind has to work through the brain, so problems of the mind also involve the brain. Neurofeedback is among the tools that can be used to affect the brain. Encouraging the brain to increase or decrease various signals that can be picked up with neurofeedback equipment can help to train the brain to decrease unhealthy patterns that may be related to clinical symptoms.
