Using Brain Mapping to Improve Sleep Disorders and Insomnia

How Brain Mapping Works for Sleep Disorders

Brain mapping, or quantitative EEG (qEEG), measures brainwave activity to detect dysfunctions linked to sleep disturbances. By analyzing these patterns, specialists can develop targeted neurofeedback protocols to retrain the brain for healthier sleep cycles.

Benefits of Brain Mapping for Sleep Disorders

  • Identifies Underlying Neurological Causes: Detects irregular brainwave patterns that contribute to sleep disturbances.
  • Non-Invasive and Drug-Free: Provides an alternative to medication-based treatments.
  • Enhances Sleep Quality: Helps regulate brain activity for deeper, more restorative sleep.
  • Improves Cognitive and Emotional Health: Reduces fatigue, enhances focus, and stabilizes mood.

The Process of Brain Mapping for Sleep Improvement

  1. qEEG Assessment: Evaluates brainwave patterns to identify imbalances.
  2. Personalized Neurofeedback Plan: Tailors treatment to correct dysregulated brain activity.
  3. Real-Time Brain Training: Uses neurofeedback to reinforce healthier sleep patterns.
  4. Ongoing Monitoring and Adjustments: Tracks progress to ensure long-term sleep improvements.

Who Can Benefit from Brain Mapping for Sleep Disorders?

  • Individuals with chronic insomnia or difficulty staying asleep.
  • People experiencing sleep disturbances due to anxiety or stress.
  • Those seeking a natural alternative to sleep medications.
  • Anyone struggling with disrupted circadian rhythms.

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.
