What is LENS Neurofeedback?
LENS (Low Energy Neurofeedback) is a fast-acting neurofeedback system. Unlike traditional neurofeedback, it requires no active participation from the client, with sessions lasting just 3-6 minutes. Typically, clients see results in 4 to 20 sessions, averaging around 12. The brevity of treatment makes it helpful to anyone seeking quick symptom relief and particularly beneficial for anyone who struggles with attention or sitting still.
LENS can be used to address anxiety, depression, ADHD, behavior disorders, sleep problems, migraines, PMS, and emotional disturbances. It is also been proven to be effective for other conditions associated with Central Nervous System disregulation including seizures, autism, and cerebral palsy.
LENS can be used as a standalone treatment or alongside other therapies and has proven beneficial for patients of all ages.
How does Lens Work?
Small sensors are applied to the forehead and scalp to capture brainwave activity, process the signal by our computer software, and extract information about brainwave information. The results are reduction and/or resolution of the symptoms. The sessions are brief (usually 3-5 minutes), gentle (usually the client feels nothing during the session), and the changes are lasting.
Each client’s EEG signals (brain waves) are unique to them and constantly changing. The LENS measures these ever-changing signals of the client and matches the feedback to the client’s own physiological (neurological) fingerprint..
The Proof
Originally developed in 1990, LENS is approved by the FDA and has been heavily researched.

Using the brain’s natural propensity to heal, EMDR is a thoroughly researched and effective treatment. It is most well known for the treatment of trauma and PTSD but can be used for anxiety, depression, OCD, chronic pain, addictions, and other distressing life experiences. I have been fortunate to use EMDR in my practice for over a decade and know first hand how life changing it can be.
