• Neurofeedback improves the lives of 70-85% of clients. You come to expect success.
• The longer clients train with neurofeedback, the more effective it tends to become, and the less often they need it.
• Neurofeedback reduces “therapist burnout” from talk therapy.
• It tends to make psychotherapy more effective.

These points are the consensus of comments from hundreds of clinicians over many years. They are common comments at conferences and courses among clinical professionals who use neurofeedback daily with clients.

Neurofeedback and brain training tools don’t cause negative side effects and are increasingly being used for a wider range of problems. Usually, once professionals or consumers are sufficiently educated about these tools and the scientific basis for them, they are more open to hearing more about how it can help. The first rule is to do no harm. These technologies are safe and clinically useful.

Who are the professionals who come to these courses and conferences? Psychologists, licensed social workers, marriage and family counselors, educational psychologists, psychiatrists, physicians, registered nurses, and a smattering of other disciplines. Academics and researchers also attend, though the vast majority are private clinicians.
