Hi Eli

 

The neurofeedback provider we have been working with in New Jersey is Betty

Jarusiewicz. We bought the software through EEG Spectrum Systems - our software

is called the EEGer - it cost around 1600 dollars and training was around 200

dollars more. Dr Betty adjusts the protocol every month or so. We live in

Greece, so it will be even easier for you living in NY. A friend here in Greece

is working with Dr Coben in New York, who is also very good. It would be

worth doing a QEEG, so you can see exactly which areas of your child's brain are

affected, even though the QEEG is not definitive and often symptoms count for

just as much with neurofeedback.

 

I think the thing with neurofeedback is to be consistent - you really need to do

2 to 3 sessions per week to see results and sometimes with everything else we

are doing this becomes difficult.

 

Good luck

 

Elena

Hi Elena-

I am in NYC and was wondering who this neurofeedback provider you use in NJ

is.  We are looking into neurofeedback therapy, but with school/work/aba etc it

is too difficult to go to a center and would love to learn about a home-based

alternative.

Thank you

Eli

      Hi

I think it is just outrageous that you are being charged 160 dollars per

neurofeedback session. We do neurofeedback at home, by ourselves,  under the

clinical supervision of an excellent neurofeedback provider in New Jersey who is

a pioneer in treating autism with neurofeedback. We were trained on the software

and it is very easy to use, almost idiot-proof. When you go to a neurofeedback

clinic, most sessions are performed by young people with minimal training - most

of them have done short certification courses but they are not the ones who set

up the protocol, which is the important thing. You need a PHD in neuroscience to

do this. We have seen a difference in our daughter's concentration and

self-regulation with neurofeedback.

We did 20 sessions with our 5 yr old. I thought it made our son more relaxed and

focused. He enjoyed it. I would do it again if it wasn't expensive and

inconvenient (160/session, had to drive to it). Maggied.

Hi all,

this is an old post, hope can find someone for further guidance. Does anyone

seeing dr. Rob Coben or Dr. BEtty Jarusiewicz?

It will be great to know who works better.

All the best,

Corinna
