Course description

This specific Neurofeedback course is suited for therapists and physicians who work or would like to work with ADHD patients. Based on different perspectives on the clinical picture, Neurofeedback will be presented as a specific therapy option. It will be illustrated how Neurofeedback can be integrated into a multimodal treatment approach along with behavioural therapy and possible medical treatment. Specific effects of Neurofeedback will be demonstrated with reference to (own) case studies and practical reports. Neurofeedback can often lead to a partial reduction in medication. You will also learn how to create and maintain the attention of ADHD patients for Neurofeedback - and other behavioural therapeutic interventions - by choosing the right feedback.

Prerequisite for participation is the attendance of a (Online) Basic Course with training providers accredited by us and experience with ILF Neurofeedback.
