About this Workshop

More students and adults are presenting with overlapping symptoms of inattention, impulsivity, anxiety, social skills deficits and difficulty expressing their feelings. Social anxiety and ASD symptoms have become more common, increasing from 1/2000 children to 1/30 children. Many individuals are seeking treatment significantly later in life (50-60s) and are undiagnosed with high functioning autism or combinations of ASD and ADHD (AudAdd).

This workshop will explain QEEG subtype patterns of ADHD & Autism; and how to integrative the QEEG patterns with other measures to clarify diagnoses and develop personalized biofeedback and neurofeedback treatment plans. QEEG and Neurofeedback research in these areas will be presented.

Treatment plans including HRV biofeedback, direct neurofeedback (stimulation), and QEEG guided neurofeedback for children, adolescents and adults with be discussed. The use of other measures (CPT tests, personality tests, rating scales) will be explained to assist in monitoring the results of training and changing protocols.

A live demonstration of combined biofeedback/neurofeedback will be done using several training screens. Applications of biofeedback and neurofeedback practical strategies for students and adults to maximize outcome application and generalization will be explained. Numerous case examples will be discussed as a group exercise. QEEG and biofeedback/neurofeedback research with ADHD and ASD will be reviewed.
