Clinical - My client reported feeling adverse effects after their initial sessions. What is happening?
Anger and irritability are common symptoms that emerge with
neurofeedback clients as they move out of depression and alpha asymmetry into
beta asymmetry and the underlying anxiety that drove the depression. This
response also carries over into sleep in the form of nightmares and vivid
dreams. These are all temporary symptoms, but a unique time for counselors
to uncover key emotional issue related to trauma. This typically occurs
somewhere between 8 and 15 sessions depending on the client's profile.
However, some clients who are exquisitely sensitive due to the intensity of
their trauma or the instability of their physiology can easily be pushed too
far too fast for their system to handle and often begin to show a strong
reactivity to NFB early on. Shorter sessions combined with HRV often
helps them to become more resilient.
