In brief, this studies suggests that exposure therapy is at the least not necessary and that through fMRI neurofeedback people can learn to change patterns of neural activation associated with fear learning. The same, of course, can be done with neurofeedback.

I’m in Portland to give a two day workshop on developmental trauma and neurofeedback for PESI, in person, on film and on the internet Monday and Tuesday. This weekend we’ve been hosted by Spike and Steven Sandberg-Lewis. We are learning a lot from them as well as falling for Portland. Spike is a preeminent neurofeedback practitioner. Steve is a preeminent naturopathic physician specializing in the gastrointestinal tract. John was our selfie photographer because he has the longest arm!
I’m grateful to have received this endorsement for my upcoming webinar from my trusted colleague and friend, Rob Kall. Hear what he has to say and consider registering to join us: trainingtrauma.org
“I’ve known Sebern Fisher since her first presentation at FutureHealth almost two decades ago. In that time she has become recognized as one of the leading experts in the field of developmental trauma and neurofeedback. She brought Bessel van der Kolk and Ruth Lanius, arguably the most influential trauma researchers in the world today, into the field of neurofeedback. She is the author of the highly regarded book, Neurofeedback in the Treatment of Developmental Trauma: Calming the Fear-Driven Brain (Norton 2014). Sebern is a spontaneous and captivating teacher who makes complex topics available to her students.
Van der Kolk said in regard to clinical neurofeedback, ‘She’s the one to teach us’ I agree!”
