Clinical panelists: Silvia Costales, MFT, BCN, Amber Fasula, PsyD, BCN, Sebern Fisher, MA, LMH, BCN
Host interviewer: Leslie Sherlin, PhD, CMPC, QEEGD, BCN, BCB
This 90-minute presentation from expert clinicians allows the audience to dig deeper into the practical approaches and concepts that are contemporaneous to neurofeedback implementation within their practice. This fireside chat format is a dialogue between the interviewer and panelists in a casual interaction where no slides and no speeches are allowed. This is the opportunity for these professionals to tell us what really happens within a session and the real challenges that they address every day. We’ll learn about the obstacles and the successes that keep them innovating their approach and the best practices that think you should know. Attendees will have the chance to hear first-hand the trends and tips from within the application of neurofeedback from those identified as some of the most successful in the field. At the conclusion of the set interview questions the audience will be allowed to submit questions in real time to the organizers and the best will be presented for the panelists to respond within the forum.

Neuroscience of Bi-lateral Alternating Stimulation and Cutting-Edge use in Practice
Dr. Amy Serin
Although bilateral alternating stimulation has been used in popular therapies for over 30 years, its widespread use has been stymied by a lack of understanding of the mechanisms of action and narrow views of applications for a wide variety of disorders. In this presentation we will review the neuroscience of the methodology and inform clinicians about how to use the technology to improve neurofeedback outcomes and help patients with home protocols. Live demonstrations and practical models will be included.
Presented by:
