What Is Neurofeedback?
Presented by Roxana Sasu
Thursday, August 25 2022, NOON PST
OVERVIEW:
In this webinar we will discuss about a non-invasive brain exercising technique, Neurofeedback and its ability to promote self-regulation and help improve symptoms related to specific nervous system dysfunctions. With Neurofeedback the brain learns to become calmer and more stable, which in turn improves overall function and allows it to achieve its maximum potential. Based on the specifics of the clinical presentation, individual areas are targeted with the training during sessions. Through repetition, the brain learns how to self-regulate and maintain gains over time. Neurofeedback has a wide clinical applicability and can be done in combination with other interventions, allowing patients to achieve even better clinical outcomes.
OBJECTIVES:
At the end of this 1-hour presentation, attendees will be able to:
1) Learn how to integrate Neurofeedback into your practice.
2) Understand what Neurofeedback is and how Infra-low Neurofeedback is different.
3) Have knowledge of the history and current use of Neurofeedback.

In 2007 she immigrated to the US to be with her future husband and shortly after she joined the clinical staff at the EEG Institute, working directly with Sue Othmer, earning her OMC certification. In her clinical practice, Roxana has worked with a multitude of brain-related disorders, from children with developmental disorders, to anxiety and depression, addictive behaviors, and stroke recovery, as well as chronic pain and PTSD. She divides her time between clinical work at her private practice, Neurotopia, in Woodland Hills, as well as teaching professional training courses in the U.S., Europe and Asia. She is a member of the Advisory Board and Director of Clinical Supervision at the Neurofeedback Institute in Romania. She is also part of ongoing research and data collection for improving the efficacy of neurofeedback.
With a wide experience of over 14 years in neurofeedback, Roxana also offers mentoring to neurofeedback clinicians interested in advancing their practical skills in this method.
Roxana authored two chapters in the book: “Restoring the Brain: Neurofeedback as an Integrative Approach to Health”. In these chapters she discusses clinical aspects related to the use of neurofeedback in targeting symptoms associated with ADD and ADHD, respectively behavioral, developmental, and emotional dysregulations in the younger population.
