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.

Course description

The Neurofeedback Basic Course is the ideal introduction to Neurofeedback. In 4 days, you will learn everything you need to get started - from applying the electrodes, using the hardware and software, to selecting the correct treatment protocols, creating symptom profiles and evaluating treatment results.

A central part is the daily neurofeedback training, where you will experience neurofeedback yourself, alternating between the "therapist" and the "client" role. The procedure and the interpretation of the training results will be discussed in small groups for each individual participant under the guidance of experienced instructors. After completing this course, you will immediately be able to apply neurofeedback effectively in your clinical practice.

The complete neurofeedback equipment will be provided during the course. At the end of the course there will be a final test and you will receive a certificate of completion.

Essential teaching content

• Technical basics of EEG and signal processing
• 10-20 System and electrode placements
• Self-regulation model and neuroplasticity
• Neurophysiological basics for understanding Neurofeedback effects
• Using Neurofeedback hardware and software and recognising artifacts
• Recognising patterns of misregulation related to physical, emotional and behavioural problems
• Neurofeedback protocols for clinical and peak performance applications
• Evaluation of symptoms and training progress
• Neurofeedback and medication
• Contraindications
• Progress monitoring and CPT - Continuous Performance Test
• Neurofeedback-Training:  Experience first-hand how fast and unique Neurofeedback effects can be

After the course you can

• Work safely with 2-channel ILF-Neurofeedback and support your clients sustainably with neurofeedback
• Select and use treatment protocols specifically tailored to client and indications
• Help clients to achieve better self-regulation and reduce symptoms of mental health conditions which usually creates benefits for further therapeutic interventions
• Benefit from a certain "lightness" that neurofeedback brings into your daily therapeutic work

Course highlights
