Neurofeedback Therapy: A Guide to Emotional Brain Training

Are you looking for an effective, non-invasive treatment to help manage your mental health without the use of medication? Emotional brain training, or neurofeedback, is a cutting-edge therapeutic option that can help those suffering from ADHD, anxiety, depression, PTSD and much more. Here we will explore the basics of emotional brain training and provide an overview of how it can help improve your mental health.

What is Emotional Brain Training?

Emotional brain training (EBT), also known as neurofeedback, is a fascinating therapeutic technique that utilizes cutting-edge technology to improve brain function and enhance mental health. But how exactly does it work?

At its core, emotional brain training involves monitoring and analyzing brainwave activity using specialized equipment. Electrodes are placed on the scalp to detect brainwave patterns, which are then translated into real-time feedback. This feedback can be delivered through visual or auditory cues, allowing individuals to become aware of their brainwave activity and learn how to regulate it.

The goal of emotional brain training is to optimize brainwaves and improve cognitive functioning. By providing feedback, individuals can identify patterns and make conscious changes in their brain activity. Over time, these changes become ingrained, leading to lasting improvements in mental health.

The effectiveness of emotional brain training lies in its ability to address the root causes of mental health issues. Rather than simply treating the symptoms, it focuses on training the brain to function more efficiently. This can result in improvements in mood, focus, attention, and overall well-being.

Based in Denver, Connected Brain Counseling recognizes the power of neurofeedback in promoting mental well-being, which is why we incorporate it into our services. We believe in providing a comprehensive and modern approach to mental health, and neurofeedback is a key component of that approach. Through this innovative technique, we empower our clients to take control of their mental health and achieve lasting positive change.

The Benefits of Emotional Brain Training

Emotional Brain Training in Denver offers numerous benefits for individuals seeking a non-invasive and drug-free approach to improving their mental health. By targeting the root causes of conditions like ADHD, anxiety, depression, and PTSD, EBT provides a long-lasting solution that goes beyond just symptom management.

One of the key benefits of EBT is its ability to optimize brain function. By training the brain to regulate its own activity, individuals can experience improvements in mood, focus, attention, and overall well-being. This means that EBT not only addresses the immediate symptoms of mental health issues but also promotes lasting positive change.

Another advantage of EBT is its versatility. It can be customized to meet the specific needs of each individual, regardless of age or condition. Whether someone is looking to manage stress, enhance cognitive performance, or overcome trauma, EBT can be tailored to their unique requirements. This personalized approach ensures that individuals receive the most effective treatment for their specific needs.

Who Can Benefit from Emotional Brain Training?

Emotional Brain Training can benefit a wide range of individuals seeking to improve their mental health. Whether you’re a student struggling with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), a professional overwhelmed by anxiety, or someone battling with depression or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), EBT can offer you a non-invasive and drug-free treatment option.

EBT is not limited by age or condition. Children, adolescents, and adults alike can benefit from this innovative therapy. It can be tailored to meet the specific needs of each individual, making it a highly effective and personalized treatment option. Regardless of whether you’re looking to manage stress, improve cognitive performance, or overcome trauma, EBT can be customized to address your unique requirements.

Sydney Focht, MA, LPC

Clinical Director & Counselor

I specialize in working with women in their 20s to 50s who struggle with self-worth, self-esteem, and the guilt that often comes with prioritizing themselves. Finding self-trust and the ability to feel worthy of happiness are common topics in my work. My clients tend to put off therapy because they downplay their struggles, describing their pain as ‘not that big of a deal.’ Many of them grew up in households where expressing emotions wasn’t encouraged and they are still looking for security now. My goal is to create a space where you feel completely free to be yourself—no pressure, no expectations. Therapy with me isn’t about either of us being ‘perfect’—it’s more about you feeling safe, seen, and supported as you figure things out in a way that works for you. I prioritize meaningful conversations that get to the heart of the issue, getting to the root and out of surface level conversation quickly. Going through my own therapy has given me a deeper understanding of what it’s like to be in the client’s seat, and it’s made me even more passionate about helping others find the support that truly works for them. My clients describe me as focused, compassionate, nonjudgmental, and down-to-earth. I truly love what I do and that comes through in my work! I’m a person-centered therapist, but I often integrate elements of Motivational Interviewing, CBT, and IFS.

Cassandra Keller, MA, LPCC

Neurofeedback Clinician & Counselor (EMDR-Trained)

I support adults and teens (15+) who are ready to find relief from trauma, anxiety, depression, or feeling stuck in life, career, or identity transitions. Using a compassionate, trauma-informed, and integrative approach, I help clients reconnect with themselves and move toward balance and resilience. I’m EMDR-trained and draw from person-centered, gestalt, DBT, and somatic practices. Whether we’re working with the nervous system, processing painful memories, or exploring patterns with curiosity, my goal is to create a safe, collaborative space where you feel supported, present, and empowered to grow. I especially enjoy working with athletes, creative people, students, and outdoor adventurers who value resilience, beauty, and balance. Alongside therapy and grounding practices, I also offer neurofeedback as another powerful pathway for nervous system regulation and healing. Outside the office, you’ll often find me climbing, fly fishing, running trails, foraging, or relaxing in the grass under the aspens. My love for movement, play, and nature continually inspires how I show up with clients.
