NEUROFEEDBACK AND DEPRESSION
Understanding of the neurochemistry and physiology of depression has changed tremendously over the past decade or two. There are a great many approaches to how to best cope with and move through depression at our mental health clinic in Raleigh NC.
Neurofeedback simply reads the electrical brain patterns that define our mental state. Then it uses feedback to reveal that information to your brain. This feedback loop then allows your brain to move out of the low energy, stuck state mental loop that we call depression and into new, more energetic and better balanced mental patterns. It is safe, non-toxic and non-invasive. And it is effective.

The way training works is this. You will generally watch a show of your choosing as you are hooked to the electrodes that monitor brain activity. Remember the machine monitors only, there is no zapping with electrical, magnetic or chemical input. When the sensors register that you are falling into the depression patterns the machine will dim the light and sound of the show. You will find this frustrating so your brain will begin to try to reroute.
When that happens the machine recognizes it and rewards you by turning the sound and picture back on. It is that simple and that profound. Your brain will learn to use more of itself as it helps lessen the low energy mental loops that we call depression. Neurofeedback is a safe and simple way for your brain to train itself to break free from the stuck state patterns that are the hallmark of depression.
Depression is a complex puzzle and Dr. Hightower is uniquely qualified to help you put the pieces together to allow you to retrain your brain and get you back to the quality of life you deserve.
