Addiction is a problem that affects people and families in different ways in New Jersey. It’s not just about the body’s dependence on drugs or alcohol; it also has emotional, mental, and social effects. 

At Rubicon Recovery, we understand how hard it is to face addiction and how much courage it takes to ask for help. So, our approach is based on empathy, where we see the person behind the addiction and support them to build a better future.

What Is Neurofeedback Therapy

Neurofeedback therapy is a form of biofeedback that focuses on the brain. It’s a non-invasive procedure where we use sensors to monitor your brainwave patterns in real time. This therapy is based on the principle that the brain is capable of learning and adapting – a concept known as neuroplasticity. 

Addiction often disrupts normal brain functioning, particularly in areas responsible for decision-making, impulse control, and emotional regulation. Neurofeedback Therapy targets these areas, helping to restore balance and normal function. 

During Neurofeedback sessions, we display your brain activity on a screen, and through various exercises, we guide your brain to produce healthier patterns. Think of it as a gym workout for your brain, where we strengthen the neural pathways that foster well-being and resilience.

Neurofeedback Therapy For Addiction In New Jersey

Our approach to Neurofeedback therapy is shaped by a deep understanding of both the science of addiction and the personal stories of those we serve. We create a therapeutic experience that is as unique as each person who walks through our doors.

Here’s what you can expect during this innovative treatment:

Starting with Understanding You: Our journey together begins with getting to know you better. We’ll have a conversation about your health history and your goals for therapy. We need to understand where you’re coming from to tailor your treatment effectively.

We’ll also conduct a brain mapping session using EEG technology. Don’t worry, it’s completely non-invasive. We’ll place some sensors on your scalp to read your brain’s electrical activity, helping us understand how best to assist you.

Interpreting Your Brain’s Language: The EEG provides us with a detailed map of your brain’s activity. It shows us how different areas of your brain are functioning, highlighting any patterns that might be related to your challenges.

Crafting Your Personalized Therapy Plan: With the insights gained from your brain map, we’ll develop a treatment plan that’s just for you. This plan will target specific areas of your brain, aiming to balance and enhance your brain’s functioning.

Your Active Role in Therapy Sessions: In each session, you’ll interact with computer-based activities while we monitor your brainwaves. This could involve watching a movie or playing a simple game.

The feedback from these activities is directly linked to your brain activity. For example, the movie may pause if your brainwaves indicate a shift away from the desired state. This immediate feedback helps your brain learn to regulate itself.

Training for a Healthier Brain: The goal here is to train your brain to function more effectively. It’s a bit like exercise for your brain, strengthening its ability to regulate itself. Over time, this can lead to improved focus, reduced stress, and overall better mental well-being.

Support and Progress Tracking: We’re with you every step of the way. We’ll regularly assess your progress and adjust the therapy as needed. It’s a partnership, and your feedback is crucial.

Reflecting on Your Progress: After completing your sessions, we’ll do a follow-up assessment. This helps us measure the changes and improvements you’ve achieved through the therapy.
