Brain Training with NeurOptimal®
Dynamical Neurofeedback®
What is neurofeedback?
Neurofeedback is a form of biofeedback in which subjects respond to a display of their own brain frequencies or other electrical activity of the nervous system.
What is biofeedback?
Biofeedback is a process whereby electronic monitoring of a normally automatic bodily function is used to train someone to acquire voluntary control of that function.
Dynamical ⇒ Changes In Response to Noted Change
NeurOptimal® is the world’s first & only non-linear Dynamical Neurofeedback®. This innovative tool reorients your central nervous system (CNS) to the present moment and enables it to communicate with itself to reorganize and return to more efficient & effective functioning.
The human brain is the most complex information processing structure in the known universe. The CNS receives, processes, and responds to sensory information and is the ‘command center of the body.’ It combines information from the entire body and coordinates its activity including one’s thoughts, movements, emotions, and desires. It also controls physical processes like our breathing, heart rate, the release of some hormones, body temperature, and much more. A healthy CNS significantly contributes to our mental and physical health. NeurOptimal® ‘exercises’ your CNS for overall health & wellness benefits.
NeurOptimal® is an advanced software program that acts as a mirror for your CNS by using proprietary mathematical transformations associated with Non-Linear Dynamical Systems Control Procedures & Joint Time-Frequency Analysis (JTFA). This advanced brain training system captures data at 256 times per second through scalp sensors, detects the ‘difference’ or changes in the brain’s electrical signals, and creates interruptions in an audio stream that alert your brain to these continuous changes in real-time. NeurOptimal® provides your brain with accurate & timely information about its own, ever-changing electrical activity through audio interruptions and relies on your brain’s inherent learning processes & propensity toward self-regulation to course-correct with this information.
Unlike linear mathematical process neurofeedback methods, NeurOptimal® does not assess brain function, presume what’s best (protocol-driven), force change or attempt to direct the response of the CNS. It is 100% noninvasive and a fundamentally unique brain training method. NeurOptimal® is an adaptive, mathematically feedback-driven process of real-time brain function reorganization. Your brain ‘decides’ what to do with the information NeurOptimal® provides and uses the unique, moment-to-moment feedback about itself to return to more efficient & effective operation. Since we are always learning from & adapting to changes (information) in our internal & external environments and intrinsically move away from discomfort, while training your brain is empowered to choose more efficient performance patterns for itself while it reorients to the present moment. With NeurOptimal® brain training, your CNS is giving itself a tune-up to improve its own function and flow! NeurOptimal® subconsciously invites your brain to ‘Return to Present’ thousands of times during a single session.

What People Are Experiencing
“Neurofeedback has been so helpful in my mental health journey to manage (sic) my anxiety and depression! By staying consistent with my sessions (sic), I’ve seen really positive results with both my anxiety and depression. My intrusive thoughts in particular have gone from constantly popping up in my brain to almost never coming up. I am so grateful for Susan and this brain training (sic).”
Emily, via Google“I had been struggling with depression & tinnitus for over a year when a friend suggested Brain Training Lounge. It took a few sessions for me to recognize a difference in my emotional state, but now I can honestly say I am feeling more positive and less stressed. I am also pleasantly surprised that my tinnitus is less intense. It was an added bonus. I plan to continue my NeurOptimal® sessions. I suspect that the positive benefits will continue to grow.”
D.K., via Email“The benefits I realized from NeurOptimal® were truly amazing. After the first session I felt relaxed. After the second my blood pressure (systolic) went down 41 points! Really. I’m sleeping much better and not waking depressed. My stress level is way better. In addition, Susan is a delight to work with. She’s knowledgeable, personable, and professional. I cannot recommend Brain Training Lounge enough. I even rented the system for two weeks!”
Mary H., via Email“I can highly recommend Brain Training Lounge. I have and will continue to be her client. It has made a huge difference in my focus, productivity and overall wellness and happiness. Additionally, I enjoy my interactions with Susan in her joyful, beautiful environment. I highly recommend you give it a try. It is so worth it.”
Sabina, via Google“I tried NeurOptimal® for the first time and WOW what a difference. My mind was thinking so clearly after I trained. It took away brain fog I didn’t even know I had!”
King Master, via Google“Every time I went in for a BTL session, I came out feeling calmer, clearer, and more relaxed. I also loved doing sessions with my middle-school-aged son. He loves how he feels after sessions, too. I need to get back in there soon for some maintenance sessions for both of us.”
Heather, via Google“BTL has helped me with PTSD and chronic headaches.”
BTL Client, via Email“I’d been dealing with a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) for eight years. I was an athlete my whole life and had lots of different concussions. The last injury knocked me on my butt. After many treatment modalities – doctors, meds – I was just burnt out. So, I found Susan. NeurOptimal® was a way for me to work on my brain, and it didn’t hurt me. I experienced so much relief.”
Amber, via Video“I seriously benefited from our previous sessions, and I am in therapy now. I am having great results! Thank you so much!”
Homecoming for Veterans Client, via email“This experience has been life-changing. At first, the results were subtle—just a small shift here and there—but over time, the cumulative effect is undeniable. It feels like my brain is discovering new pathways, opening up entirely different ways of thinking and being. If you’re looking for deep, lasting change, I can’t recommend this place enough.”
Rachael, via Google“As a veteran that suffers from PTSD, I have been looking for different forms of treatment to help with my anxiety and depression. I have tried everything in my past with little to no success, and I feel completely blessed to have found the Brain Training Lounge. You owe it to yourself to try this.”
Kelly, via Google“After suffering a Traumatic Brain Injury, we were desperate to help my son in his recovery. I feel with full confidence that NeurOptimal® brain training helped in the healing process for his recovery. It has immensely helped with my PTSD from his accident and my nightmares. I don’t experience as many as I did before giving brain training a go. Highly Recommend!”
Kristi, via Google“Susan & the Brain Training Lounge have been a lifesaver for my family. My son was struggling in school, and it began to affect his peers due to his emotional outbursts. His primary care physician suggested we try medication for ADHD, but I opted to try NeurOptimal®. Within nine weeks, he had made an almost complete 180! He’s had so many compliments and kudos on his behavior and classwork completion! The end of this school year went very smoothly. His attitude & mood regulation have been so much easier for him and small things aren’t as upsetting as before.”
Natalie, via Google“Relaxing and healing experience. I sleep great after a session!”
Fran, via Google“NeurOptimal® has changed my life! I was eighteen months removed from brain surgery and still suffering side effects from it when I was introduced to NeurOptimal® and the Brain Training Lounge. I rented a system. Within days of starting, I felt like myself again and had the most productive week in three years. I have been able to go back to working full time. I cannot recommend this enough!”
Brendon, via Google“This service has greatly helped my mental health. I used to stress over things long past but very rarely now. My sleep has been better, too. I highly recommend Susan and Brain Training Lounge.”
Christine, via Google“The Brain Training Lounge has allowed our family to find our wholesome selves again – from our young children to both my husband and I. It has allowed our child to be able to find his words when he’s frustrated and connect with those around him. We find ourselves handling our stress a little easier and moving through it rather than staying in it. It is so wonderful to sit back and relax and let the meditative work be done for you. Susan is amazing, and we are so glad she introduced us to NeurOptimal® brain training!”
Emily, via Google“I struggle with anxiety. After I train, my anxiety is non-existent, and I feel I can be more myself in the world.”

Brain training has taught me how to let go of things in my past and move forward without feeling sad or guilty. It is truly amazing!”
Linda, via Google“I was eighteen months removed from brain surgery and still suffering side effects from it when I was introduced to NeurOptimal®.

I cannot recommend this enough! ”
Brendon, via Email“The Brain Training Lounge piqued my interest after I Googled “neurofeedback training near me” after reading “The Body Keeps the Score” by Dr. Bessel van der Kolk. After my first session, my brain fog lifted. My stress levels were particularly high, yet I handled it much better than I would normally. I was also sleeping better than I ever have. I appreciated how comfortable Susan made me feel and how friendly, caring, and compassionate she’s always been. If you’re thinking about it…stop, just do it! Susan is fantastic & nonlinear neurofeedback training is some really cool sh!t!”
Jessica, via Email“Susan knows her stuff and focuses on a great experience. Regularly refer my clients to use this as additional support for TBI, ADHD and stress management 🙂 ”
Mary Ellen, via Google“Brain training helped me remove a mental hurdle I’d been hanging on to for over ten years almost immediately after I started training!”
Amy, via Google“I love neurofeedback, and Susan is always so accommodating to my schedule. It has made a huge positive impact and has helped tremendously with my concussion symptoms. My memory and cognition had decreased; and after training for one year, I’m back to my old self.”
Belinda, via Google“Brain training has helped me live a life I didn’t think was possible. My days are no longer ruled by anxiety and overthinking. What a gift to finally be able to “trust my brain” and not have my thoughts escalate to worst case scenarios.”
Joan, via Google“I’m abundantly thankful for NeurOptimal® and especially for Susan’s work with Veterans. Had Susan not had a Veteran program, I likely wouldn’t have given this life-changing program a chance. I highly recommend NeurOptimal®, Susan, and the Brain Training Lounge in your wellness journey.”
Alexis, via Google“I can’t recommend Brain Training Lounge enough. It has changed my highly sensitive self. I’m able to be in this world more peacefully.”

If you or anyone you know feels that stress & anxiety are taking over your life, please give the Brain Training Lounge a try!”
