How Neurofeedback Works to Improve Anxiety
Neurofeedback helps calm an overactive brain by teaching it how to self-regulate. During a session, sensors are placed on the scalp to measure brainwave activity. Through real-time visual and audio feedback, often while watching a movie or listening to music, the brain learns to shift from patterns of stress and worry into states of calm and balance. Over time, this retraining helps reduce symptoms of anxiety, improve emotional control, and enhance focus.
This process is safe, non-invasive, and completely drug-free. For many clients, neurofeedback becomes a powerful tool that works alongside counseling, mindfulness, or other therapies to support long-term emotional wellness.
