A brain map, also known as a QEEG (Quantitative Electroencephalogram), is a non-invasive way to measure and record your brainwave activity. It gives us a detailed look at how your brain is functioning and helps us customize your Neurofeedback protocol.
Not at all. Brain mapping is completely safe and painless. Nothing is sent to your brain — we are only reading your natural brainwave activity.
We use two different methods depending on the client:
Dry Cap Mapping
Gel Cap Mapping
You’ll want to plan to wash your hair afterward, as the gel can leave it messy.
Yes. A brain map is required before beginning any Neurofeedback sessions. It helps us understand exactly what your brain needs and how to design the most effective treatment plan.
No, insurance does not cover the cost of a brain map. It is considered a required tool for your personalized care.
Yes. We perform a follow-up brain map (remap) after completing your 25 Neurofeedback sessions. This helps us measure your progress and determine any next steps if needed.
A brain map gives us valuable insights into your brain’s patterns, showing us areas of overactivity, underactivity, and dysregulation. This allows us to tailor Neurofeedback to optimize your brain’s performance and function.
Call us at 918-747-7400 to schedule your free consultation. Here we will answer any questions you may have and explain further how Neurofeedback therapy can help you or your loved one.
The first step is to schedule your Quantitative EEG. This is a 20-channel recording of total brain wave activity that helps us create what we call a “Brain Map.” Your Brain Map shows us what part of your brain is over or underactive and gives us prescriptions for how to treat with Neurofeedback. The Brain Map will take place here in our office unless otherwise arranged, and your customized Neurofeedback protocols will focus specifically on normalizing abnormal brain wave patterns found in your QEEG.
When we complete the QEEG in our office, we send the results to our Neuro-Map database and are able to receive immediate analysis results. We will schedule your first Neurofeedback appointment as soon as the analysis is received.
Each Neurofeedback session is approximately 30-40 minutes. We generally schedule an hour for each appointment.
Neurofeedback treatments are recommended at least two to three times per week. Two treatments can be completed in one day as long as we schedule three hours between sessions – this is especially helpful for our out-of-town clients. We offer treatments in 25 session blocks, as Neurofeedback Therapy requires reinforcement training. Positive changes occur over time.
Yes! We accept most major medical insurance plans, including Aetna, BlueCross BlueShield, Cigna, United Health Care/Optum, Humana, Tricare, Medicare and Medicaid (SoonerCare for clients 19 and under).
Yes, we do offer payment plans. Please speak with our office staff regarding the options available. We offer a discount when payment is made in full for 25 sessions. We also partner with Care Credit. Care Credit provides 0% interest for 18 months. Call 1(800) 365-8295 to qualify. The non-discounted rate applies when Care Credit is utilized.
No. Neurofeedback does not change personality. Personality is the expression of many genetic factors, along with the environment that shapes it. Many clients are concerned because the drugs prescribed to children and adults sometimes seem to “change their personality.” This falls under the category of a drug side effect which is not permanent but is bothersome. This is not the case with Neurofeedback. In fact, we believe that Neurofeedback helps children and adults become more of who they really are without the interference of troublesome symptoms of brain dis-regulation and drug-related side effects.
In Talk Therapy sessions, you can expect a safe and confidential space where you can openly discuss your thoughts, feelings, and concerns with a trained therapist. The therapist will actively listen, provide support, and guide the conversation to help you gain insight, develop coping strategies, and work towards your therapeutic goals. The sessions will focus on addressing your specific needs and may involve exploring past experiences, examining thinking and behavior patterns, and developing practical tools for managing challenges.
Typically, sessions are booked for 60 minutes. The duration of Talk Therapy sessions can vary depending on several factors, including the therapist's approach and your individual needs. The frequency and number of sessions will depend on the nature of your concerns, progress in therapy, and collaborative decisions made with your therapist.
In most cases, having a family member or support person accompany you to Talk Therapy sessions is possible, and it can be beneficial, especially for certain types of therapy, such as family therapy or couples therapy. In these instances, the involvement of family members or partners is often encouraged to address relationship dynamics and improve communication. However, it is important to discuss this with your therapist beforehand to ensure that the presence of the family member or support person aligns with the goals of your therapy and maintains a safe and productive therapeutic environment.
Confidentiality is a fundamental aspect of Talk Therapy. Therapists are bound by ethical guidelines and legal obligations to maintain the privacy and confidentiality of their clients. Generally, information shared in therapy sessions is kept strictly confidential unless there are legal requirements or situations that indicate a risk of harm to yourself or others. Your therapist will explain the limits of confidentiality during the initial sessions, ensuring you clearly understand how your information will be handled. Establishing trust and confidentiality is crucial in building a strong therapeutic alliance and creating a safe space for exploration and healing.
