Online Sessions, and Home Based Biofeedback

 

Welcome,

​

     I help clients with home based techniques and tools that they can keep using when we are done. We do counseling when the client wants, and also start with a 8-12 week set of lessons on balancing brain and heart rhythms using either free technology I share or low cost tools when that is wanted. Both are effective, and everything else is helped when you can handle attention and anxiety at a new level. People can use the techniques while we talk, and then while they relax, work, study, read, or even while using media as a form of brain training that is proven in research for deep changes I talk about below.    

 

     You can use home based biofeedback tools or brain rhythm training tools. They both are proven to help clients improve attention and impulse control by 50% or more, lower anxiety and by 77% (on average), boost memory or focus 11-32% (on average), and are proven to help depression, sleep, migraines, tinnitus, and other things. You can continue to use the home based tools when we are done. The results are life change for many people. The changes  in how people balance heart and brain rhythms become a new skill that is like learning to balance a bike.

 

     Health insurance covers these services as a part of counseling with mindfulness training. I currently accept the following insurances: UnitedHealth, CareOregon, Trillium, and Providence Health Plan. I have been a teacher to clinical staff at The University of Minnesota Medical Center and other trusted places.

​

     In this first session clients also learn how to use biofeedback, neurofeedback based sound therapies that are well proven in research. I have developed a website to share with clients in this first session that becomes a tool for them to use and home. It can be shared with people you know, along with the brain health assessments. The sound training tools have been proven to help people in the following ways:

​

• Increase mental performance, and increase impulse control in children with ADHD by more than 55%.

• Increase short term memory and focus by 21% for adults and students, and up to 30% in people with ADHD.

• Lower anxiety patients by 58% more than music and 86% more than silence

• Lower chronic pain by 77% while listening.

• Improve sleep, reduce or stop panic attacks, and help with migraines.

​

     The results clients see in their lives and for loved ones are often remarkable. The results that I describe on the front page are what we work for, and we can sometimes get better results with more home practice. 

​

     Because I give clients tools in the first conversation at home that will help them and the people they care about, I ask that clients book an appointment for the first consultation. i will send a link for meeting online. You can sign using the link on this page that is below on phones or in the upper right on large tablets and computers. After you sign up, I will send a link for our meeting, and confirm the time that will work.

​

     I am glad to help, and feel blessed to be able to help people the way that I do.

Thank You for Your Time,
