What conditions can neurofeedback help?
Neurofeedback was originally used for seizure disorders and then expanded as a treatment for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Attention Deficit Disorder to improve attention, focus and concentration. As the field of NFB has grown, NFB is being used for a growing list of conditions that affect both children and adults.
These include:
Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
Sleep Disorders
Anxiety
Depression
Attachment Disorder
Addictions
Autism
Traumatic Brain Injury
Cognitive Decline
Bedwetting
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
Fetal Alcohol Syndrome
ADD/ADHD
Chronic Pain
Eating Disorders
Tourette's Syndrome
Many people have experienced a reduction or elimination of medication (in consultation with their doctor) as a result of doing neurofeedback. Thus, neurofeedback offers a potential alternative to medication without the negative side effects of medication.
Mershona Parshall Info :Testimonials
"Neurofeedback has substantially and easily improved my ability to focus and concentrate, as well as lightening my overall outlook." --D.F., Sagamore Hills, OH
"The neurofeedback helped in ways that my Zoloft didn't. It cleared up my brain fog. I was able to easily complete tasks that were just overwhelming before. It was almost too easy. It was difficult to accept that something so simple could work. I wish that this had come along sooner in my life. I feel that I wasted so much time." --Y.G., Cleveland Hts., OH
"My kids have both moved up dramatically with expressive language, reading, social skills, problem solving, auditory and visual processing, no more bedwetting, word retrieval, interest in the world around them, math comprehension and measured cognitive levels. More importantly my kids can hold a conversation that makes sense, and report information sequentially and logically. The level of confusion in them has really declined and they are a lot more fun to be with. We have come a long way since they arrived here." --A.H. Chagrin Falls, OH, (Adoptive Parent)

Zengar NeurOptimal Training Options
1. Office: This is the typical choice for individuals who are within driving distance to my office and prefer training directly with me in the office setting.
2. Zengar NeurOptimal Hometraining: Hometraining is available for individuals who need more intensive brain training, who live at a distance or who would like to train in their own environment. Longer training programs are often associated with diagnoses such as attachment disorder, fetal alcohol syndrome, traumatic brain injury or autism. For motivated individuals, this is also an economical, efficient, and ecofriendly alternative to office sessions. Basic computer skills are required.
* Option A: Leasing a NeurOptimal neurofeedback system from me. The neurofeedback system I offer for lease is the NeurOptimal professional system. The professional system allows the neurofeedback trainee unlimited sessions during the lease period. These systems are leased on a week to week or month to month basis and require initial office visits for assessment and training on running the system. I provide ongoing consultation and supervision with this option as part of the fee.
* Option B: You may purchase a NeurOptional Personal system from me. The NeurOptimal Personal system consists of a netbook that allows the trainee to run basic NeurOptimal neurofeedback sessions. The first 60 sessions are pre-loaded into the netbook and then additional refill sessions are purchased from Zengar. Refills are sold in blocks so the price per session decreases as larger session blocks are purchased. The NeurOptimal Personal system sells for $3,800.00. This includes the netbook, encoder, sensors and supplies. An external DVD player can be purchased for an additional $195.00. I will train you on how to use the NeurOptimal Personal system properly. This may take from 4 - 8 session hours depending on how quickly you learn the software and how to apply the sensors properly. Trainees may choose to have follow-up office sessions with me or distance supervision at a reasonable cost.
* NeurOptimal Intensives: Individuals may schedule NeurOptimal neurofeedback intensive training sessions. This involves participating in daily or twice daily neurofeedback sessions for a number of consecutive days. This can be a transformation experience for anyone especially interested in getting out of a neuro-rut or for individuals who live at a distance.
Neurofeedback for Personal Growth and Transformation
Neurofeedback is a powerful tool to shift trainees out of unhelpful patterns into more authentic ways of being. Neurofeedback trainees typically experience:
A melting away of symptoms that were once bothersome or disturbing;
A shift away from old thinking patterns, as old perceptions become less relevant;
A greater sense of well being, confidence, and calm.
Neurofeedback may be combined with psychotherapy to support the trainee's personal growth and healing.
