Troubled Youth Suite

Professionals working with at-risk adolescents can find the display screens they need to begin using neuro- and biofeedback. It uses two EEG sensors for traditional neurofeedback and up to four sensors for Z-Score neurofeedback.

Based on work performed at the Nokomis Challenge Center in Michigan Corrections Institute in the United States, this suite includes software, reference articles, helpful training tips, and instructional materials on the different biofeedback training considerations when working with troubled youth. The authors underline the importance of striking a balance between a teen’s wants and training needs.

The biofeedback screens use a variety of music, animations and DVDs that appeal to young minds and can also be individually tailored for specific needs and interests of each person. Importance is given to the transferability of the improvements in skills by using homework assignments and by educating others involved in the treatment about what the teen is working on and how they can help.

3 Sessions of Troubled Youth Grand Rounds

Date: Thursday, October 13/ November 10/ December 15, 2011
Time: 09:00 to 10:00 Eastern Time (US & Canada) 
Session Leader: Linda Walker

These three 60-minute online sessions, live from Michigan, are scheduled monthly for three consecutive months. Each one hour grand round session gives you the opportunity to ask Linda Walker your questions about the use of biofeedback and neurofeedback for troubled youth. Share new information and discuss cases with Linda, guest presenters and colleagues. Live demonstrations of recorded data and other information set in an interactive framework provide up-to-date, relevant summaries that can immediately be put to use. These online sessions are a convenient method for professionals to obtain continuous consultation for their cases. Participants also benefit from being able to review approaches taken by colleagues in different professions and practice situations working with a wide range of populations.

DR. SWINGLE'S GRAND ROUNDS

DR. SWINGLE'S GRAND ROUNDS

Save time and benefit from the 6-hours of instruction recorded during Dr. Swingle's Grand Rounds Advanced Level online class. The recordings were made over 6-months at each of the six 60-minute sessions for experienced neurofeedback practitioners. During each recording, participants discuss in an open forum, case presentation style, how they use Dr. Swingle's QuickQ and BrainDryvr methods in their practice. The "Grand Rounds" recordings include the Dr. Swingle's expert opinion, in which he shares new information with the participants. Live demonstrations of recorded data and other information set in an interactive framework provide up-to-date, relevant summaries that can immediately be put to use. These recordings are a convenient method for professionals to benefit from Dr. Swingle's consultations for cases recorded during the presentations made by participants in the live sessions. Each 60-minute recording informs experienced practitioners on the latest technology designed to implement Dr. Swingle's assessment and treatment methods. Paul G. Swingle, Ph.D., is a Fellow of the Canadian Psychological Association and was a Lecturer in Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School from 1991 to 1998. Since 1997 he has been in a private practice in Vancouver, British Columbia. His most recent book, "Biofeedback for the Brain" (2008), was published by Rutgers University Press and has just been released in paperback.

INFINITI FOR THE LEARNING CURVE (TLC)

INFINITI FOR THE LEARNING CURVE (TLC) SUITE

Francois Dupont

This suite presents François Dupont's sophisticated but easy-to-run scripts to transfer data recorded with the Infiniti system to the TLC spreadsheet.This limited edition suite enables Thought Technology Infiniti users to record 2, 4, or 6 channels of EEG data for transfer to the TLC Excel Files. The TLC method provides numerous integrated views of the data from 10 to 18 sites and entails a process for examining brain patterns as a basis for determining training plans quickly and effectively. The Infiniti for The Learning Curve (TLC) Suite also provides basic training screens for Infiniti users that have been trained to use the TLC approach created by Peter Van Deusen.

NEUROFEEDBACK FOR TINNITUS

NEUROFEEDBACK FOR TINNITUS SUITE

The Neurofeedback for Tinnitus Limited Edition software suite is based on the published work of Dr. Dohrmann and her research group in Universität Konstanz. The software is designed to assess and then help to normalize the activity of alpha and delta brainwaves by providing feedback of their ratios. The Limited Edition suite includes a collection of literature, samples of tinnitus questionnaires, sample data from a tinnitus client, and research notes. The Infiniti screen collection consists of several training screens, a report screen, an artifacting screen, signal verification and baseline screen, two basic scripts, and script instructions.

QUICKQ & BRAINDRYVR

DR. SWINGLE'S QUICKQ & BRAINDRYVR SUITE

Paul G. Swingle, Ph.D.

This QuickQ & BrainDryvr software was designed by Dr. Paul Swingle and includes comprehensive clinical and software guides that cover every step from recording an initial assessment to training sessions. Dr. Swingle’s QuickQ Assessment system is a simple method to examine brain activity as a basis for determining training plans quickly and effectively. Results from the assessment are arranged in a simple excel reports, which includes notes for quick interpretation. The documentation included with the suite guides users through the entire process of hardware hook-up, client preparation, impedance check, data recording and reviewing. Sample data is also included with the software program to allow purchasers to see a real-time recording of a BrainDryvr session.

LOW FREQUENCY NEUROFEEDBACK

LOW FREQUENCY NEUROFEEDBACK SUITE

This suite combines engineering know-how in low frequency signal processing to enable training of low frequencies (0.001 to 3 Hz). Users can also monitor standard EEG bandwiths and physiology data. These screens are a good starting point for practitioners, educators and researchers who wish to further research this specialization.
