Vincent Cousineau Russ G Thoughtful, caring, and knowledgeable. Rhonda Elliott Neurofeedback helped me immensely. I had been suffering from anxiety and insomnia, and after therapy the anxiety is much better and the insomnia is gone!! I would highly recommend neurofeedback. Lucy Grant This place has amazing counselors as well as neurofeedback therapy. Both treatments work effectively together and the results are truly outstanding. The treatment for neurofeedback is on the more affordable side compared to other places. The staff are always friendly. Couldn't recommend enough! Gaïa Neurofeedback changed my life and solved my ticks. I recommend neurofeedvack for any youth out there! It’s really beneficial for focus, or times when i’ve felt stressed- doing a session really helps. Everyone at Neuralive is really kind and professional. If you don’t do neurofeedback you are missing out Michael Politano-Bowles Amazing people, service and therapeutic value. 100% recommend NeurAlive to anyone on the search for wellness and well-being in their lives Eric Hill My family's experience with Anna at NeurAlive has been very positive. Her support has opened up a path for us to reconnect with my daughter and her emotions. This process has helped her feel emotionally safe, allowing her to grow and develop her independence and emotional resilience. We've seen her overcome her fear and learn to recognize safe adults in the outside world. Continuing with Anna's services has been instrumental in supporting my daughter's daily emotional needs and helping her adapt to public environments. The progress we've witnessed over the months has been remarkable. Additionally, Anna's extra support in providing my daughter's school with the necessary resources to meet her evolving needs has been invaluable. Tanya S I have complex post traumatic stress disorder. My panic attacks, tics and depression lessen when I have neurofeedback. Nothing else has come close to helping me and the support I receive is wonderful. Rebecca Bradley Very happy with our experience here , my partner and myself attended 13 couples counseling sessions and not only did we get a lot out of our counseling but we really appreciated the flexibility with our VERY challenging schedule due to our family situations at home . It took over 6 months to complete our sessions but staff worked with us every step of the process . Clean and inviting space and open minded conscientious staff . I would highly recommend and would come back for support for my mental health journey in the future 💓👌 Kathi Tamashiro I did a neurofeedback session in the evening, then slept. In the morning spasms were gone. After 3 sessions I felt sustained energy throughout the day. I repeated the sessions over the month, each time I slept very well and had relief from spasms in the morning. I have scoliosis and experience spasms in my lower back. Ive been experiencing these spasms after activity for many years. What a blessing, I'm so thankful.Google rating score: 4.9 of 5, based on 30 reviews
