Substance Abuse
Many people think addiction is due to a lack of self-discipline, but addiction is physiological, not psychological. Addicts struggle with emotions such as guilt, shame, anger and frustration. In addition, people with addiction frequently suffer from other mental health disorders such as depression, bipolar disorder, and anxiety. Neurofeedback targets the brain disorder of addiction and cravings. Retraining the brain to be calm, focused, and relaxed helps a person think more clearly. Neurofeedback training provides a solid base on which to build long term recovery and prevent relapses.
