I've no personal experience either, though I did find these interesting and helpful threads of Rapt Reader and Lbj who did have experience way back. Excerpt https://bpdfamily.com/message_board/index.php?topic=201944.0 . Excerpt https://bpdfamily.com/message_board/index.php?topic=210452.0 Excerpt https://bpdfamily.com/message_board/index.php?topic=202562.30 Has it been suggested to you? Following DBT my DD and her new T is looking to next therapies for her, they're not quite there, deciding what though I will share with everyone here when I have news.

I've seen them speak at a few events and it piqued my interest. I'd like to see improvement and they say they change the brain, not just mask symptoms with meds...
I would have to pay for each session, so wanted opinions before we paid for more stuff thats a waste of time. Title: Re: Have you tried Neurofeedback? Post by: wendydarling on July 29, 2019, 06:18:21 AM Have you considered having one consultation with the person who's piqued your interest to share your situation and ask any burning questions?

Title: Re: Have you tried Neurofeedback? Post by: wendydarling on August 04, 2019, 10:22:22 PM Hum, guess that maybe a balanced view, then perhaps not
Are you any nearer to making a decision? Do you think it maybe something your DD may buy into? WDx Title: Re: Have you tried Neurofeedback? Post by: livednlearned on August 05, 2019, 09:15:58 AM There's an excellent book called The Body Keeps the Score (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00G3L1C2K/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1) by Bessel van der Kolk that discusses neurofeedback (as one of several possible treatments for chronic developmental trauma).
In my area neurofeedback can be expensive and for people with chronic developmental trauma. I've heard it can take months of sessions before improvements are experienced. Title: Re: Have you tried Neurofeedback? Post by: wendydarling on August 05, 2019, 10:10:57 AM Super LnL! I've ordered, think DD may be interested to read too.
And here is our review The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma Author: Bessel van der Kolk, MD (https://bpdfamily.com/message_board/index.php?topic=301413.0) WDx |
