qEEG Brain Mapping for PTSD Rdecovery: A Path to Healing

What Is qEEG Brain Mapping?

Quantitative Electroencephalography (qEEG) brain mapping is a non-invasive diagnostic tool that measures electrical activity in the brain. It provides a detailed map of how different brain regions function, highlighting irregular patterns linked to conditions like PTSD.

This data is invaluable for crafting targeted therapies, such as neurofeedback, that help the brain regain balance and improve overall mental health.

How Does PTSD Affect Brain Function?

PTSD disrupts the brain’s normal functioning, often leading to:

  • Overactive fear responses due to heightened activity in the amygdala.
  • Memory and focus issues linked to the hippocampus.
  • Emotional dysregulation caused by prefrontal cortex imbalances.

qEEG brain mapping provides insights into these disruptions, allowing for precise interventions to restore balance.

Why Choose qEEG Brain Mapping for PTSD Recovery?

Using qEEG brain mapping for PTSD recovery offers unique benefits:

  • Personalized Insights: Understand how PTSD specifically affects your brain.
  • Targeted Treatments: Develop therapies based on your unique brainwave patterns.
  • Non-Invasive Approach: Safe and painless, qEEG doesn’t rely on medication.
  • Measurable Results: Track progress and see tangible improvements over time.

The Role of Neurofeedback in PTSD Treatment

Once qEEG data identifies irregular brainwave patterns, neurofeedback therapy can help retrain the brain to function more effectively. This process involves:

  1. Monitoring brain activity in real-time.
  2. Providing feedback to encourage healthier brainwave patterns.
  3. Improving emotional regulation, focus, and resilience.

Benefits of qEEG Brain Mapping and Neurofeedback for PTSD

  1. Reduced Anxiety: Address overactive fear responses and promote calmness.
  2. Improved Sleep: Combat insomnia and restore healthy sleep cycles.
  3. Enhanced Emotional Stability: Help regulate mood swings and emotional triggers.
  4. Better Focus: Restore cognitive clarity and concentration.
  5. Sustainable Recovery: Empower the brain to self-regulate for long-term healing.

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.
