The Session Experience
- Two flat sensors are positioned on your scalp and three ear clips are placed with a small amount of conductive paste.
- You’ll listen to audio with brief, micro-cuts (the essential feedback mechanism NeurOptimal® uses) in the audio stream. There are options available to accommodate clients with hearing challenges.
- No conscious participation is required while training. You can read, play or work on your personal device, watch accompanied G-Force imagery on a monitor, relax with your eyes closed, or even fall asleep which happens quite often in the studio!
- Clients are offered Tracking Tools to measure their progress. The tools are completed at Session 0 or 1. After 10 or 20 sessions, clients complete the Tracking Tools again to identify their shifts. We summarize the changes for your reference.
- Many users, particularly experienced ones, often feel noticeably more relaxed immediately after a session.

What People Are Experiencing
“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“I am experiencing less brain fog, less stress, less anxiety, and I am sleeping much better. I can control how I react to stressful situations that have happened in my life and not let them control me. 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 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“I was eighteen months removed from brain surgery and still suffering side effects from it when I was introduced to NeurOptimal®. Within days of starting, I felt like myself again for the first time in three or more years. I had other people notice a difference in me, and I had the most productive week in three years. I cannot recommend this enough! ”
Brendon, via Email“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“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“Step-by-step guidance and a generous spirit made the rental experience extra rich & rewarding. “
K.R., via Square Feedback“Relaxing and healing experience. I sleep great after a session!”
Fran, 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“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“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.”
Rachel, via Google“My focus and energy throughout the day has completely changed. I’m working smarter not harder now. My sleep has totally changed. It helps me shut down and let my body repair itself. I can’t say enough good things about NeurOptimal®! Best decision EVER! “
Amity, 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 is a great NeurOptimal® Trainer, and I highly recommend her. She knows her stuff!”
David, 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.”
Jennifer, via Google“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“I appreciate your orientation in service to community and at reasonable cost. Plus it is a pleasant little getaway to relax and be cared for in your lovely, welcoming space!”
G.K., via Square Feedback“Stress & anxiety have always been a big part of my life. After a few sessions, I started to feel little bits of my stress & anxiety peeling away. After a month, I had much more patience and was able to slow down and problem solve. After a month, I can mitigate stressful situations with a clear head. Susan has been a lifesaver for me. If you or anyone you know feels that stress & anxiety are taking over your life, please give the Brain Training Lounge a try!”
Jess, via Google“I started brain training after emergency dental surgery. I felt traumatized. I wasn’t sleeping. I felt anxious most of the time and was exhausted. After a few sessions, my sleep became more regular and my anxiety started decreasing. I believe brain training brought me back to my normal, happy self.”
Deb, 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“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“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!”
