We share the same goal of parents for their kids. We want our kids - no matter what age they are - to get better and have good mental health. The good thing is that we don’t have to worry about that so much anymore because that’s what neurofeedback providers all over the world do.Tens and thousands of research studies show the efficacy of neurofeedback. It just goes to show how much of a powerful, innovative tool it is. In fact, neurofeedback can be used even for those without any mental health issues. In order for us to be able to assure ourselves, our kids, and our family that everything’s gonna be okay, we have to know what to look for in a neurofeedback provider. This is important to achieve the expected positive results that we want.There are providers all over the world. How do I find a certified neurofeedback provider?The good thing about neurofeedback treatment is that it is available for us and that there are providers all over the world. However, some of them are certified, whereas some are not.The best place to start looking for a certified neurofeedback provider is through Biofeedback Certification International Alliance (BCIA). It is an organization that issues certificates for biofeedback providers. BCB designates Board Certified in Biofeedback.

It is also necessary to ask how many sessions will be done. If somebody says 10 sessions, you better run because it takes at least 20 sessions to see the effect. Finding out what kind of equipment they use in their clinic is also recommended. While there is no bad neurofeedback, certain neurofeedback treatments are better for certain conditions.For example, I feel like kids' brains do better with EEG Neurofeedback as compared to any other kind.
