Ep 106: Trauma Symptom Relief: All About Neurofeedback with Louise Finley, LPC, OMC


Listen Later

What would it be like to get a full night sleep?  Or to be able to focus on the task at hand?

After experiencing the trauma of domestic violence and narcissistic abuse many survivors find that their daily functioning completely goes away.  And this makes complete sense, right?

The constant trauma while in the relationship and the continued trauma in the aftermath cause a myriad of problems for your physical and mental health.

On the last episode of The Rising Beyond Podcast I explained many of the most common trauma modalities that therapists today are using to support survivors.  In this episode we are diving deeper into a lesser known modality; neurofeedback.

I have a conversation with Louise Finley, LPC on how neurofeedback can be used as a part of your healing journey from your abusive relationship.  We discuss what neurofeedback is and what it might look like during a session, and we also talk about some of the possible benefits and symptoms that can be targeted through this modality.  

Louise is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Georgia, USA and has worked in the therapy field since 2011.  Her early career years were split between private practice and hospital outpatient settings and consequently, Louise has gotten to work with individuals in many stages of life, mental health crises, trauma recovery, and growth.  In 2017 Louise was offered the opportunity to be trained in the Othmer Method of Neurofeedback--she initially saw this as a way to expand support for clients, but it has ended up re-shaping her, both personally and as a clinician.  The additional training has led Louise to actively integrate more brain and nervous system education in her talk therapy work and to appreciate how an appropriately timed brain-based intervention can be a catalyst for beautiful change.  Louise currently balances being a parent and seeing a small number of clients in private practice.  She occasionally blogs about Neurofeedback at www.louisefinley.com and would love to be a resource to any individuals or clinicians with Neurofeedback questions or looking to connect with a Georgia provider!
