Upcoming Courses
4-Day Comprehensive Course on Neurotherapy (dates subject to change)
- Durham NC Nov 13-16
- Glendale CA Dec 11-14
Our course is a hands-on experience right from the start. Attendees consistently say this format is a very good way to learn neurofeedback.
"Neurofeedback should be viewed as one of the three essential or primary forms of intervention -
psychotherapy, psychopharmacology, and neurofeedback. In my experience, neurofeedback is every bit as important and powerful as the other two forms of treatment." - Dr. Laurence Hirshberg, Brown University Medical School, psychologist specializing in Developmental Disorders and Autism.

Last Word
Information wants to be free (2008)
The control and distribution of information has been a primary source of conflict since the dawn of history. The battle rages on to this day, scarcely unchecked, in medical, legal, and scientific fields. Entire careers, many prominent, are based on maintaining the status quo of inequality and inefficiency in these information distribution systems. But the information itself has now grown so vast and so powerful that its distribution can no longer be controlled by a select few. There's a saying on the Net, "Information wants to be free."
