Neurofeedback 101: Rewiring the Brain for ADHD, Anxiety, Depression and Beyond (without medication) - Paperback

by Michael P. Cohen (Author)

You really can change how your brain functions-without medication.

If you or someone you care about struggles with anxiety, depression, ADHD, sleep problems, or other brain-based issues, you may be wondering: Is neurofeedback worth exploring?

Neurofeedback 101 offers a clear, balanced introduction to this brain-training approach-without jargon, hype, or unrealistic promises.

This is NOT a how-to manual, training guide, or technical textbook.

If you're looking for equipment recommendations, clinical protocols, or step-by-step instructions to practice neurofeedback yourself, this isn't that book.

This IS a foundation-a clear, honest guide that helps you understand how neurofeedback works, what to realistically expect, and whether it's the right fit for your specific concerns.

• What neurofeedback actually is-and how it differs from other approaches
• How neurofeedback helps the brain learn to regulate itself more effectively
• What brain training sessions are like, and what people typically notice
• How much the brain can realistically change-and how long it takes
• Why neurofeedback works for some people and not others
• What questions to ask when evaluating providers and approaches

This book explains how the brain learns from feedback-and why that learning process is central to how neurofeedback works.

You'll also find real-world examples showing how children, teens, and adults have used neurofeedback, helping you see how it might apply to your situation.

Many readers say this book:

• Helped them finally make sense of neurofeedback and decide whether to pursue it
• Gave them the right questions to ask providers
• Set realistic expectations about what neurofeedback can-and can't-do

Clinicians and therapists report that it:

• Clarified how neurofeedback works in accessible language
• Helped them determine if neurofeedback fits their practice
• Sparked deeper interest in the field

Rather than promising quick fixes, Neurofeedback 101 explains how neurofeedback engages the brain's natural capacity to learn and adapt-and why meaningful progress often depends on time, guidance, and the right support.

If you want a trustworthy starting point for understanding neurofeedback-one that respects your intelligence and doesn't oversell the science-this book offers exactly that.

Whether you're considering neurofeedback for yourself, a loved one, or your clinical practice, Neurofeedback 101 gives you the grounded understanding you need to make an informed decision.

With over 13,000 copies sold, Neurofeedback 101 has become a trusted introduction to brain training for thousands of individuals and clinicians exploring this field.
