At Long Island Neurocare Therapy, our therapists are trained to use multiple technologies to complete the best possible assessment of each patient’s presenting symptoms and underlying issues to develop a personalized treatment plan. These include a complete Quantitative EEG (QEEG), sleep and psychometric evaluation.
A QEEG is an assessment that is a type of brain mapping and allows our staff to assess a patient’s brain functions more accurately. The results of the QEEG enable us to determine the Neurofeedback protocol most likely to be an effective and durable treatment for the patient with ADHD and/or sleep problems.
Sleep also plays a vital role in our general brain and mental health, which is why we always conduct a formal sleep assessment (called Actigraphy) to measure factors that may impact the quality of the patient’s sleep. Our clinical experience shows that a patient is more likely to respond to their treatment if an underlying sleep problem has also been addressed.
