Prepare Your Child's Brain for Academic Success

Every June, I receive the same urgent calls from concerned parents.

They tell me about their deep fears for their child's future. Parents of children with ADHD describe how their bright child can't focus long enough to demonstrate their true abilities. Those whose children struggle with emotional dysregulation worry about social rejection and classroom outbursts that leave their child feeling ashamed and misunderstood. I hear from parents of children with learning differences who watch their child's confidence erode with each academic struggle, and from parents of those with autism spectrum behaviors who wonder if their child will ever develop the social skills needed for independence. 

These parents aren't just concerned about grades—they're afraid for their child's future, wondering if they'll ever fulfill their potential, develop meaningful relationships, or function independently in college and beyond.

By the time these calls come in mid-summer, we're facing a difficult truth: there simply isn't enough time to fully prepare their child's brain for the coming school year.

Neurofeedback Works, But It Requires Time and Commitment

Neurofeedback is a proven approach that helps children's brains learn more efficient patterns of functioning. This isn't a quick fix—it's a learning process that requires:

  • * 40 Sessions (2-3 times weekly for optimal results)

  • * 3-4 Months of consistent training

  • * Practice period before school demands begin

How Will Your Child Spend This Summer?

You have a choice in how to use these critical months before the next school year begins:

You could spend another summer with short-term coping strategies—perhaps more executive function coaching, another round of organizational systems that don't stick, or simply hoping that next year will somehow be different.

Or you could invest in training your child's brain to function more effectively—just 2-3 hours per week of neurofeedback that creates lasting neural changes, allowing your child to begin the school year with improved attention, better emotional regulation, and enhanced cognitive processing.

Summer Training Advantage: Flexible Scheduling & Faster Progress

Summer offers unique advantages for neurofeedback training. With school out of session, we have more appointment availability, flexible scheduling options, and the ability to schedule sessions at convenient times for your family. Many families use this opportunity to accelerate progress with more frequent sessions—something that's simply not possible during the busy school year.

Starting in spring ensures your child can complete a full protocol before fall, taking full advantage of the optimal summer training period.

The Personalized Approach: Customized for Your Child's Brain

Using advanced QEEG brain mapping technology, I create a customized protocol specifically for your child's unique brain patterns. No two brains are alike, and no two training programs are identical.

Don't wait until it's too late to fully prepare your child for next year's challenges.

How does neurofeedback work?

We can use our neurofeedback machines to help you understand what’s happening in your brain when you think or feel a certain way. By identifying harmful patterns or states, we can help you change the way you think and feel. It’s a modern medical advancement that supports what we do with our other methods. 



Holistic Mental Health Services

Most of our clients participate in some kind of traditional psychotherapy. We’ll use our decades of experience to understand how you’re feeling and help you develop effective strategies for dealing with the stress that comes up in your life. We reinforce this traditional approach with other methods, including hypnosis and yoga nidra.
