Understand the brain.
Train regulation.
Personalized, clinician-guided neurofeedback using real-time EEG information to support attention, emotional regulation, sleep, resilience and cognitive performance when clinically appropriate.
Brain training built around feedback, repetition and clinical context.
Neurofeedback, also called EEG biofeedback, measures electrical activity from the scalp and converts that information into immediate visual or auditory feedback.
With repeated practice, the brain receives information that can help support more stable patterns of attention, arousal and self-regulation. At Calgary Mind & Wellness Clinic, neurofeedback is considered within the broader clinical picture rather than presented as a one-size-fits-all cure.
- Individualized clinical formulation
- Protocols matched to goals
- Progress reviewed throughout training
Measure first. Train with a clinical rationale.
A quantitative EEG records electrical activity across the scalp and can help characterize patterns relevant to the clinical question.
When appropriate, qEEG findings are integrated with history, symptoms and neuropsychological information — never interpreted in isolation.
- Electrophysiological brain activity data
- Individualized protocol planning
- Progress reviewed alongside clinical outcomes
Dedicated neurofeedback and qEEG information for your goals.
Use these focused areas to learn what is known, what remains uncertain, and how each goal fits into individualized clinical care.
Where neurofeedback has been researched.
Evidence strength differs substantially by condition and by neurofeedback method. The labels below are intentionally cautious so clients can make informed decisions.
ADHD & Attention
Most studiedAttention, impulsivity, self-regulation and executive-function goals have a substantial research base, with conclusions varying by study design and protocol.
PTSD & Trauma Symptoms
PromisingArousal regulation, intrusive symptoms and trauma-related dysregulation have been studied, with encouraging but heterogeneous findings.
Depression
EmergingEEG and fMRI neurofeedback have been studied as adjunctive approaches for depressive symptoms; evidence remains promising rather than definitive.
Anxiety & Stress
EmergingNeurofeedback and related biofeedback approaches have been studied for anxiety-related symptoms and physiological self-regulation.
Sleep & Insomnia
Mixed evidenceSleep has been studied, but findings remain mixed and do not support universal benefit over control conditions.
Executive Function
Performance goalTraining may target sustained attention, working memory, cognitive flexibility, processing efficiency and self-monitoring when appropriate.
Your neurofeedback pathway in Calgary.
Consultation
Clarify symptoms, goals, history, current treatment and whether neurofeedback is clinically appropriate.
qEEG / Clinical Assessment
When indicated, quantitative EEG and clinical information help clarify patterns relevant to your goals.
Personalized Training
Real-time visual or auditory feedback supports repeated practice of more stable patterns of attention and regulation.
Review & Refine
Clinical response and functional outcomes are reviewed and the plan is adjusted rather than using a fixed protocol.
Experienced care. Personal attention.

Read the evidence behind the conversation.
Selected systematic reviews and meta-analyses support informed discussion without claiming that every condition has established first-line evidence.
ADHD
Systematic reviews and meta-analyses examining neurofeedback for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.
PTSD
Systematic reviews examining neurofeedback and trauma-related symptoms.
Depression
Meta-analytic and systematic-review evidence on biofeedback and neurofeedback for depressive symptoms.
Clear answers before you begin.
What conditions has neurofeedback been studied for?
Neurofeedback has been studied across ADHD, PTSD, depression, anxiety, chronic pain, epilepsy, sleep difficulties, autism-related regulation and cognitive-performance goals. Evidence varies by condition.
Is neurofeedback effective for ADHD?
ADHD is one of the most studied applications. Some systematic reviews report symptom improvement, while blinded analyses and major clinical guidelines remain more cautious.
Is qEEG brain mapping the same as neurofeedback?
No. qEEG is an assessment method that records and analyzes EEG patterns. Neurofeedback is the training process.
Does neurofeedback send electricity into the brain?
No. Standard EEG neurofeedback sensors measure electrical activity from the scalp; they do not deliver electrical stimulation.
How many sessions will I need?
There is no universal number. Frequency and duration depend on the clinical goal, baseline presentation, protocol and individual response.
