Scheduling psychological or neuropsychological testing typically takes between 2 to 4 weeks after your initial appointment, depending on availability.
During the initial appointment, relevant information is collected to understand your needs. This includes reviewing any documents you provide, such as previous psychological assessments, court orders, or accommodation requests. The goal is to create a tailored plan, which may include recommendations for psychological or neuropsychological testing.
Reports are usually available about 2 to 3 weeks after testing. Emergency cases may be expedited.

The first appointment will involve an intake to gather information and develop a focused plan. You will provide the accommodation requirements from the relevant institution’s website.

Evidence varies. There is strong support for neurofeedback in ADHD with moderate evidence in anxiety, PTSD, insomnia, Withdrawal symptoms from addiction. As with any type of therapy, not everyone responds to neurofeedback, and results can depend on the practitioner’s skill, the protocol used, and the condition being treated.
Typical neurofeedback sessions last about 45 minutes. Frequency can range from 1 to 3 sessions per week, with treatment often spanning 20 to 40 sessions. Sessions are usually relaxing, during which patients may watch videos or play games controlled by their brainwaves. Neurofeedback should be guided by a trained clinician, ideally a licensed mental health or medical professional certified in neurofeedback (e.g., BCIA-certified).
