Neurofeedback
(EEG biofeedback)
The brain functions through two primary components, chemicals and electrical currents. Neurofeedback works with the electrical components through the training of the five brainwaves.

Neurofeedback can be an adjunct or alternative to medication, for anyone 5+ years old.
One significant benefit of neurofeedback is its lasting results and continued improvements AFTER training is complete. The brain loves to learn and it’s constantly seeking how to optimize its’ efforts, through the use of neuroplasticity. However, just like other muscles in the body, after an injury, overuse or underuse, the brain can become less optimal and less regulated.
It’s non-invasive, completely painless, and requires nothing more than being attentive to the sounds (beeping). Using the foundation of operant conditioning, the electrodes placed on the scalp are recording active brain wave activity. The technician will reward desirable activity to be replicated or enhanced through the audible feedback, while inhibiting brain wave activity, that is producing non-desirable results.
Because the brain’s natural instinct to function in an optimal, regulated manner, it works to stay within the reinforced pathways-with no conscious effort from you!
The qEEG will tell the provider exactly where and how to train. No more guessing! We can see everything we're treating! You will undergo a personalized treatment plan based on your qEEG and self reported areas of concern.
qEEG/Brain Map
Partnering with Siber Imaging, in Charlotte, NC, a beacon in the field of neurotherapy for over 30 years, Alisha will conduct a qEGG, otherwise known as a Brain Map.
This brain imaging is a painless, non-invasive procedure where the client wears a cap (similar to a swim cap) with 19 electrodes that will collect the real-time data needed for the analysis. Through a sequence of eyes open and eyes closed, the client will be instructed to relax and sit as still as possible. Typically in less than 10 minutes, all data that is needed, is acquired.
Analysis + Results
Client’s test results will be analyzed by a trained, data analyst with over 30 years of experience. No computer generated results will be given! The client’s results are then compared to a national database of your gender and age match to help identify areas of the brain that could be seen as problematic and causing disruptions in client’s daily life.
The analyst, from Siber Imaging, alongside Alisha and the client, will have a virtual review session, where the client is able to view the images of their brain.These images will provide the data, such as, brain wave activity, ability for the brain to communicate across the hemispheres, over or under firing of neurons, and more!
Training Sessions
Neurofeedback training will take place twice a week at Renewed Mentality. The client can expect to be seated comfortably in a reclining chair, while having 2 electrodes placed on the scalp and 3 placed behind the ears. Once again, this will be completely painless. The electrodes will begin gathering data on the target areas of interest, as they record real-time activity of brainwaves.
Through the filtering of the brainwaves, the equipment projects audible feedback to the client, when optimal performance is achieved. Through the feedback, the client’s brain will begin working to stay within that optimal neural pathway. Thus creating sustained, or even permanent change!
