Convenient Opportunity to Become Certified in Neurofeedback

Cost Effective & Time Efficient

     Obtaining Professional certification represents a wise choice for the health care professional specialist desiring to offer patients and clients high quality neurofeedback training and therapy.  Certification offers credibility and well deserved respect for individuals who undergo the rigor and discipline required to attain specialist status amongst their peers. Insurance companies are requiring certification more often than not these days and the educated patient or client may well choose their clinician based on the clinicians certification status.  Let’s face it, when we choose our physicians and other health care providers - certification in ones area of expertise is simply expected.

     Beginning a new career or extending one’s knowledge in ones existing career usually requires travel to several workshops offering the educational information necessary when “certification” is the goal.  Value of time spent away from ones clinic and home represents an intangible cost.  However, actual hard costs associated with  workshop registration fees, airfare, auto rental, hotel, food and miscellaneous needs tend to cost thousands of dollars per workshop.  Finally a time efficient and cost effective solution has emerged - New Mind Neurofeedback Webcourse.

     Stress Therapy Solutions, in Cleveland, Ohio, is an educational corporation offering the biofeedback community access to some of the most highly respected instructors in the industry.  Best known, since the late 80’s as an alternative medicine source and publisher of the past newspaper Chronic Pain Solutions - Stress Therapy Solutions, Inc. markets educational workshops, courses, books and products. Stress Therapy Solutions, Inc. is proud to be chosen by New Mind Neurofeedback as it’s exclusive U.S. marketing agent for The New Mind Neurofeedback Webcourse.

     This course provides students with all the materials required to prepare for the didactic portion of the BCIA certification requirement.  A dedicated full time Ph.D. in psychology and neurofeedback (with clinical experience) monitors the course and actively assists the student to better understand the material.  This course follows the BCIA Blueprint of Knowledge very closely and was written for clinicians in an easy to understand format. It not only covers the scientific literature in the field regarding all the various disorders and protocols, but also explains how to actually “do neurofeedback”.

What can I expect as a student of the New Mind Neurofeedback Webcourse?

     The New Mind Neurofeedback Webcourse provides a means for individuals wishing to complete 40 didactic hours of BCIA approved training an opportunity to do so over the Internet.  Upon registration, students will receive a passkey to log on to the New Mind Neurofeedback website and access the modules they wish to study in order to obtain certified didactic hours.

     In addition, they will receive an invitation to join the course discussion group, where questions regarding readings can be discussed with other students or the instructor. A dedicated staff member, who is an experienced college professor, will monitor the discussion group and all aspects of the course on an ongoing basis.  All required reading materials are included.

     The course has been written in an easy to understand manner and is fully cited. The author draws upon extensive experience at the clinical level as well as from years of teaching EEG biofeedback to other professionals in both the clinical and workshop setting. Many modules in the course have already been field tested and received enthusiastic praise from students trying to learn EEG biofeedback.

     Whether your intent is to obtain as much neurofeedback knowledge as possible or to obtain the neccessary hours required by BCIA you will find this course to be highly informative, easy to follow and cost effective.
