Dr. Bessel van der Kolk MD just posted a webinar on Neurofeedback that knocked me out. "Nothing I know can do that," he said, on first seeing Neurofeedback's results. This changes the map of trauma healing. Watch now; it may not be up long.
I had a big emotional reaction to his revelations on how my brain still doesn't work in some areas . Click for van der Kolk video and to see what happened to me: http://attachmentdisorderheali...edback-van-der-kolk/
Please forward this your lists of therapists, colleagues, anyone interested in healing. Dr. van der Kolk has promoted EMDR, yoga, and body work for decades. Now folks with early trauma (or any kind of trauma) can be confident in checking out neurofeedback before choosing a healing mode.
I've so far done 10 months of neurofeedback and the healing is enormous. But it's not well-known enough or funded. Getting the word out could stop a lot of suffering.
At minute 20, van der Kolk shows graphics on how Sebern Fisher introduced him to neurofeedback. "She showed me drawings that traumatized kids did of their families (stick figures), then how they developed after 20 weeks of neurofeedback (real people), after 40 weeks (an attached group), and I was blown away by their development," he says.
"There's nothing I know that can do that, I thought," he said. "When you see something like that, you pay attention. Can my psychoanalysis do that? Can my acceptance and commitment therapy do that? Can my friends who do EMDR or Somatic Experiencing do that? No. Nothing I know of can do THAT. Time to learn new things."
