INTRODUCTORY COURSE

I highly recommend the 4-day introductory course with Ed Hamlin, PhD and Mary Ammerman, MA. It is the best one in the field, particularly for those coming into neurofeedback as psychotherapists. (All those wishing to purchase EEGer systems must have an advanced degree in their field.) To schedule training, email training@eeger.com. Ed offers intermediate and advanced courses as well that you can also find by contacting training@eeger.com.

Here is a course description:

INTERMEDIATE TWO-DAY SEMINAR

I offer an intermediate course for therapists who have used neurofeedback for at least one year and who are working with those suffering from developmental trauma.  Take a look at the description here:

This intensive two-day seminar is offered for psychotherapists presently incorporating neurofeedback into their work with developmental trauma.

This seminar is designed to address the learning needs of each participant as they relate to working with developmental trauma and its long and chaotic aftermath. In the last year there have been two very important studies published on neurofeedback and trauma. We will review the latest breakthroughs in the neuroscience of trauma and how they apply to the development of neurofeedback protocols. We’ll go over protocols that have proven helpful to most patients with these histories and what to consider when they’re not. We’ll discuss the complex nature of trauma in the brain, mind and sense of identity and how to understand and engage with the fields that trauma creates in our patients and in us.  We’ll discuss the pragmatic issues in the integration of brain and mind approaches (behavioral, dynamic, experiential or analytic), but perhaps, even more importantly, we will grapple with the meaning of the changes we see.

We will talk about all of this using case examples that the seminar leader and participants bring. For more information:

MENTORING WEBINAR:

I also offer two weekly 6-session semester mentoring webinars that are live and taped for later review called Finding the Path: Neurofeedback with Developmental Trauma. Here’s a description of that course:

Mentoring with Sebern Fisher

Given the overwhelming impact of neglect and abuse on the developing brain, it can feel daunting to train people with developmental trauma. I am increasingly convinced, however, that those who have suffered these histories cannot thrive without help in lowering arousal and regulating their brains. So it is up to us to find the path. Through cases brought by participants, we will look at assessment, protocols, and integration of neurofeedback with psychotherapy. Conversations could range further into subjects such as the epigenetics of trauma, pattern recognition and repetition compulsion, trauma fields and trauma identity, the disgrace and distraction of the DSM, laterality and the sense of self and other topics as they arise from case discussion.

Sebern Fisher has been integrating neurofeedback and psychotherapy into the treatment of those with developmental trauma for the last twenty years. She was the clinical director of a residential treatment facility for severely disturbed adolescents for 17 years. During her tenure she introduced attachment theory and dialectical behavior therapy to the milieu. She is presently in private practice where she provides neurofeedback, psychotherapy and consultation. She trains nationally and internationally.

Sebern Fisher is author of Neurofeedback in the Treatment of Developmental Trauma: Calming the Fear-driven Brain (Norton 2014).
