Module 1 & 2: ILF Neurofeedback Basic Course

The course is a balanced combination of theory, discussion, and practice that offers participants the chance to experience the training themselves and learn from their own Neurofeedback journey, as well as from the group. This allows practitioners to develop the necessary skills to successfully and confidently start offering the approach immediately after the course.

This course is organized in two modules, 2 and 1/2 days each, three weeks apart. This makes it convenient for busy clinicians to attend the course and prepare over the 40 hours of training to use the approach with their patients.

Module 1 offers insight into the history of the approach, the neurophysiological basis of Neurofeedback, and the core concepts as the foundation for the clinical work. We will be looking into the assessment process and how to understand brain dysregulations and their manifestations and apply that knowledge to design individualized training protocols. As part of module I, we learn about the technology used for ILF Neurofeedback - Cygnet and will practice using this technology throughout the course.

Module 2 continues a week later with discussions on developing the training protocols and interpreting training outcomes to adjust the treatment plan for better clinical results. We will continue with more in-depth discussions about categories of symptoms and what the clinical approach entails for each of them. Case studies, symptom tracking, and objective testing are all part of this module as well.

After the course, we offer 4 mentoring hours to further support the learning and the implementation of the method into your practice.

You can take our courses one by one, at your own pace, whenever it’s convenient for you, or you can commit to the full Comprehensive Training Program, which allows you to learn it all in as little as 6 months.

Once you complete all the steps of the Comprehensive Path to Neurofeedback Proficiency, you can work towards a Proficiency Certification by:

• completing at least 400 Neurofeedback sessions with clients (20 clients to complete at least 20 sessions each)
• completing 20 ILF and 10 combined Synchrony and Alpha-Theta sessions on yourself
• prepare a case study to showcase mastery in applying the approach in clinical practice
• written quiz

Undergoing the Proficiency Certification Process will allow you to be recognized as an expert in the use of this approach within the network of ILF Neurofeedback practitioners.
