Neurofeedback and Traumatic Stress

Many of my clients who have done extensive online research into traumatic stress have come across the name Bessel van der Kolk. He is one of the most prominent names in the field of trauma and is also a huge proponent of neurofeedback training.  What is interesting is that people are surprised when I say that most skilled neurofeedback practitioners already know about Dr. van der Kolk, are familiar with his work, and integrate his findings into their practices.

If you happen to be one of those who is not familiar with his work, I highly recommend his book, The Body Keeps the Score.  If you are already familiar, you may want to explore his website, www.besselvanderkolk.com, or read one of his recent studies on neurofeedback and PTSD, which is here.
