    Do your personal and public identities match, or are you experiencing an Identity Crisis?

    Do your personal and public identities match, or are you experiencing an Identity Crisis?

    Do you know who you are? You aren't the same person you were 5 years ago, are you? Do you like who you are? Do the people around you seem to understand who you are and where you are coming from? Do you wear a different mask for each situation or relationship? Your identity changes over time. It grows and adjusts according to your experiences, relationships, and changes in your environment. More than that, you actually have 2 separate, but hopefully related identities i

    4-Channel Z Score Training with BrainAvatar

    Neurofeedback is an interesting field, because it is not just one technique done a standard way across all clinicians and therapists. The field has changed over time, adding new understanding of how the brain works, and how it "should" work. In keeping with new scientific knowledge, new techniques and protocols have been added. In our office, we have the ability to train in many of these techniques, and we use some of the most up to date software and hardware in the indust

    New Equipment: NeuroGuide with Brain Surfer

    By Dr. Allen Novian on October 9, 2013 Upon attending the 2013 ISNR (International Society of Neuronal Regulation) Conference in Dallas, TX, we began looking for new methods for working with complex cases. We have been watching the development of a neurofeedback protocol type called LORETA neurofeedback, which combines the technology of a full quantitative EEG (19 sensors are used to collect a full picture of the electrical activity of the brain) with moment-by-moment feedba

    NIMH director talks about “Brain Disorders” instead of Mental Health Disorders

    By Dr. Allen Novian In this TED Talk by Thomas Insel, the director of the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), he discusses the need to redefine “mental health disorders” and “behavioral disorders” by acknowledging their source: they are brain disorders. It is a wonderful thing to see the greater mental health field embracing the idea that behavioral disorders show up first in the brain, and then in the behavior. In the talk, he discusses early detection and intervent

    The “Zone” or "Focus and Flow"

    By Dr. Allen Novian Recently, I have had several clients, current and perspective, ask a lot of questions about the state of mind that athletes refer to as “the Zone” or “Focus and Flow.” This is the state that we are trying to achieve with neurofeedback, meditation, and practice, but it means more than that. To me, “flow” is a state in which your conscious mind, or superego, stops telling you why you can’t do something and lets the rest of your mind and body get it done.

    Families and ADD

    By Dr. Allen Novian When parents bring their kids in for ADD testing, they are often surprised to find that many of the problems their children have are actually reflected in their own lives as well. Did you know that ADD has a genetic component? It does, and it always amazes me to see how many parents can benefit from testing and therapy along with their kids. If you are beginning to find fault with your children because they are disorganized, unfocused, or fail to follow

    What's Going on Between Your Ears

    By Dr. Allen Novian What if you knew what was going on behind that perfect haircut? Sometimes, it seems as if there is nothing but air, other times, it feels like the gears are turning so fast that you can’t shut them off! Well, we can actually take a look and see what your brain is doing, without even opening up the skull. We look at the brain’s activity electrically… yes, I said electrically. Did you know that your brain works off of electricity, just like computers and

    New Directions

    By Dr. Allen Novian There are always reasons to take a new direction in life, whether it be the clothes you wear, the job you do, the treatment choices you make, or the relationship you are in. Looking outside the box can be scary and more than a little nerve wracking, but sometimes, it is the best choice.In relationships, there comes a time when a change is needed by one or both people. The question then, becomes, “Do we change together, or separately?” Often, when trust has

    An Article on ADD/ADHD In Response to Dr. Amen's Theory

This way, the graphics will be displayed. This article gives you information about Attention Deficit Disorder with and without the Hyperactive component.

    Technology and Mental Health

    By Dr. Allen Novian As I work more and more with Anxiety patients and study the impact of anxiety and frustration in people’s lives, I encountered the perfect illustration in my own life. Have you ever tried to hook something up without directions? How about put together a puzzle only to find that a key piece is missing? All I can say is that technology is only good when it WORKS! Technology is in every facet of our lives these days. We have digital clocks, laptops, our cell

    What Fires Together Wires Together

    By Dr. Novian People often ask me how Neurofeedback works. It’s a simple concept that, what “fires” together “wires” together in our brain. In other words what experiences and reactions we have to daily life create connections in the brain. The neurons that fire at the same time connect (or wire) with each other. This is a powerful idea and one that can change your life when you begin to implement it daily. How does it happen? Well, the brain does not judge whether something

    Neurofeedback: Why? How? What? Will it?

    Why neurofeedback? Brainwaves may seem impossible to understand, let alone change, but the fact is that our brainwaves are the basis of our physical, emotional, and psychological stability. Depending on your mental health issues, there are times when a change in brainwave activity, whether in frequency (speed) or amplitude (size), can have a significant impact on your ability to function on a daily basis. Most doctors and mental health professionals rely on medication to tre
