Neurofeedback for Low Mood and Depression in Chattanooga

Depression can drain your energy, motivation and focus. Neurofeedback lets your brain practice different activity patterns, and some people use it alongside therapy or medication. Pathways offers it in our Chattanooga office or at home.

How it works. Sensors on the scalp read your brainwaves while you watch or listen. When your brain moves toward the target pattern, the screen or sound responds. In standard neurofeedback, the sensors only listen; nothing is sent into the brain.

Who it may suit

• People working with a doctor or therapist who want to add a drug-free option
• People whose low mood goes along with poor focus, stress, or poor sleep

What it isn't. Neurofeedback isn't a replacement for counseling or medical care. Please don't change any medication without talking to your prescriber. If you're having thoughts of suicide, call or text 988, or call 911.

Skip the drive. With home training, you use our equipment and app on your own phone or tablet. Your practitioner reviews your sessions and adjusts your plan as you go, and we start with a video call to set you up.

What it costs
