    INSTANT ACCESS! In this audio webinar and slide presentation of “What Parents Should Know About Neurofeedback for ADHD,” David Rabiner, Ph.D., and Ed Hamlin, Ph.D., discuss:

    Neurofeedback — also known as EEG biofeedback — gives real-time feedback on brainwave activity to individuals with ADHD who are taught to achieve EEG patterns consistent with focus and attention. Neurofeedback proponents say it results in improved attention and reduced hyperactive/impulsive behavior. Researchers began studying neurofeedback in the 1970s and have published a number of supportive studies, however many experts say the efficacy of neurofeedback for ADHD remains unclear. Many parents are uncertain whether to pursue this treatment regimen for their children.

    • How long neurofeedback has been used to treat ADHD, and the theoretical basis for it
    • The basics of neurofeedback treatment, including its costs and typical duration
    • The results parents should expect to see in children with ADHD
    • Whether neurofeedback should be used alone or in combination with medication and/or behavior therapy
    • The research supporting neurofeedback as a treatment for ADHD
    • Home-based neurofeedback systems and important considerations for trying them
