Train Your Brain.

Restore Your Resilience.

Experience non-invasive, effortless brain training that supports mental clarity, emotional balance, and deeper healing.

A Gentle Way to Help the Brain Reset

Neurofeedback is a powerful, non-invasive technology that helps the brain regulate itself more effectively. At FlowState Therapy, we use NeurOptimal® Dynamical Neurofeedback, a next-generation system designed to promote flexibility and resilience in the brain — no diagnosis required, no effort needed.

Rather than pushing the brain in a specific direction, NeurOptimal® offers real-time feedback to help your brain notice its own activity and self-correct naturally. Over time, this can lead to noticeable improvements in emotional regulation, focus, sleep, and overall well-being.

How Neurofeedback Can Help

While not a medical treatment, neurofeedback has been shown to be a powerful addition to traditional therapies for the symptoms of and often report improvements in:

✅ Sleep quality and energy

✅ Mental clarity and focus

✅ Emotional stability and resilience

✅ Anxiety, depression, and trauma-related symptoms

✅ Chronic pain, fatigue, or migraines

✅ ADHD and attention issues

✅ Performance (creative, athletic, or professional)

Neurofeedback is not a treatment — it's a training. It supports your brain's natural capacity to regulate itself.

What Happens in a Session?

We understand that healing isn’t just about talking — it’s about helping the brain regain its natural rhythm. That’s why we offer neurofeedback at FlowState Therapy: a gentle, non-invasive way to support your nervous system’s ability to self-regulate. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, trauma, or simply feeling stuck, this technology helps your brain find its way back to clarity, calm, and resilience — all without effort or conscious control.

You’ll sit comfortably in a chair with sensors gently placed on your scalp and ears (they simply read your brainwaves).

  1. You’ll listen to music or watch visuals — no tasks, no effort.

  2. When your brain shifts, the music subtly interrupts. That moment of feedback invites your brain to re-regulate itself.

  3. Sessions last about 45 minutes. Most people report feeling calmer, clearer, or more focused afterward.

Pricing & Session Options

We offer two pathways for NeurOptimal® neurofeedback sessions to meet your needs, preferences, and budget.

Therapy-Led Neurofeedback — $150/session

Ideal for clients who want a more integrated approach. These sessions are guided by a licensed psychotherapist who can help you process insights from your training and connect neurofeedback with your broader therapeutic goals.

Includes:

• Pre- and post-session check-in

• Goal-focused integration support

• Trauma-informed care during the session

Nurse-Led Neurofeedback — $75/session

A lower-cost option designed for maintenance, support between therapy appointments, or those seeking ongoing nervous system regulation. These sessions are supervised by our nurse practitioner or clinical assistant.

Includes:

• System setup and supervision

• Quiet, private environment for training

• Progress tracking if requested

MEDICALLY ASSISTED OPTION

  • Neurofeedback Is for Everyone

    While many clients benefit from standard neurofeedback sessions, others may benefit from added clinical oversight. Our medically assisted option offers a more structured, collaborative approach — especially for individuals with complex health histories, current medications, or overlapping mental health conditions.

    This pathway combines the non-invasive power of NeurOptimal® with therapeutic support and medical supervision, ensuring an extra layer of care and coordination.

    This option includes:

    A comprehensive assessment by an Ottawa-based Nurse Practitioner

    Ongoing collaboration between your therapist and medical provider

    Private, supervised sessions in a calm, professional setting

    Integration therapy to help you apply insights to daily life

    Optional tracking tools to monitor your progress over time

    Not everyone chooses this path—but for those who do, it can be a powerful reset.
