Are you using your magnificent mind to the fullest?

Do you feel your life is as happy and satisfying as you imagine it could be?

At Potomac Mindworks you will have the opportunity to experience a variety of traditional and holistic therapies in a combination that meets your unique needs.  I work with the latest computer technologies alone, or in conjunction with psychotherapy. 

Do you struggle with stress intolerance, difficulties with sleep, concentration, memory, anxiety or depression?  These are all examples of brain dysregulation.

I will work with you to help regulate your central nervous system and thereby improve your brain’s effectiveness. As your brain becomes more self-regulated, imbalances and inefficiencies in functioning (what we generally term “symptoms”, or “problems”) that interfere with your life tend to drop away.  You are more able to meet the challenges that the world brings to you because your brain has learned to be both more stable and more flexible. The more stable the central nervous system is, the more stress-resilient you become physically, emotionally, and intellectually.  With these changes your behavior and attitudes can shift in ways that are surprisingly positive and healthful.

Are there roadblocks to your full participation in life?

Many times neurofeedback is sufficient to improve bothersome symptoms; however, at other times when neurofeedback is added to psychotherapy, the deepest and most enduring results are achieved.  In psychotherapy you can acquire tools to help you resolve troublesome life issues, change undesirable behaviors, and gain understanding and insight into your personal challenges.  You can find new perspectives and learn to empower yourself to create the life you want to live.

Neurofeedback enhances the effectiveness of psychotherapy by preparing the brain for learning, and opening you to a broader range of possibilities that psychotherapy can offer.  Psychotherapy in turn deepens and integrates the experiences made available to you through neurofeedback.

Train your brain for optimal performance through neurofeedback.  Learn to use your mind to its fullest through psychotherapy.
