Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)

Children and adults diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) can often experience challenges related to language, learning, socialization, anxiety, behaviour regulation, attention, emotion regulation, and sleep. While not a treatment for ASD, neurofeedback can assist individuals in promoting more calmness and flexibility in the brain; which can often lead to better expression, executive functioning, social behaviour, and less reactivity.

A small-scale review suggested that the use of NeurOptimal® neurofeedback training lessens symptoms related to emotional regulation for individuals with Autism, consistent with another study of neurofeedback for ASD youth.
