Neurofeedback
Neurofeedback is a safe, painless and non-invasive method of functional brain training. Neurofeedback uses EEG (electroencephalography) technology to record the electrical activity of the brain. By recording as QEEG (Quantitative Electroencephalography), the electrical activity of the nervous system is examined. Neurofeedback treatment is based on neuroscience and involves training brain activity, which teaches the brain to regulate itself, resulting in a strengthening and improvement of its function.
The method is based on operant learning. Neurofeedback is used to improve, manage and treat brain and nervous system disorders such as ADHD. The brain learns to reduce the less functional brain waves and increase the waves that provide more functional and optimal activity. This produces long-lasting effects over time.

About us
Neurobioklinik is a private clinic run by two licensed psychologists in Lund. We are experts in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and BIO and NEUROFEEDBACK therapies. We are also authorized psychologists in Spain and Spanish-speaking with extensive experience in clinical psychology. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is one of the fundamental pillars of psychological treatment.
We are trained approved practitioners of medical technologies: Neurofeedback and Biofeedback.
Our training in different psychological models and schools guarantees our competence in the treatment of psychological problems and mental disorders such as anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, personality disorders, ADHD, OCD, PTSD, etc. As clinical psychologists, our training gives us the ability to provide rigorous and scientific counseling, evaluation and treatment.
Neurofeedback sessions
During the neurofeedback session, sensors (electrodes) are placed on the scalp and through a computer program, real-time visual and/or auditory feedback is provided that allows the brain to learn to reduce the brain waves that cause difficulties and increase those associated with better functioning.
Neurofeedback is an evidence-based method that has been shown to be effective in the intervention of patients with ADHD, epilepsy, post-traumatic stress disorder, addiction, anxiety, autism and depression, among other conditions. Neurofeedback is a therapeutic option that, in combination with other psychotherapeutic approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and EMDR, promotes improvement and reduction of symptoms in patients. The American Academy of Pediatrics (APS) has recommended neurofeedback as an effective and specific intervention for the treatment of ADHD since 2011.
An evidence-based approach
Neurofeedback is an evidence-based method that is effective for a wide range of problems such as: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Autism (ATS), Anxiety, Stress-related difficulties, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), PTSD, Trauma, Epilepsy, Bipolar Disorder, Depression, Insomnia, etc. Certain brain waves correlate with symptoms. Through operant conditioning, it is possible to alter these waves and thereby achieve a change in symptoms using neurofeedback.
Peak Performance
Neurofeedback can also be applied to people who want to improve their performance and strengthen their abilities, such as professional competitors, high-performing individuals, athletes, and the like. By training brain activity, neurofeedback can help optimize mental acuity, focus, and performance to achieve desired outcomes and success in various areas of life and work.
CBT or EMDR in combination with Neurofeedback
We offer the possibility to receive CBT psychotherapy or EMDR method with complementary support to neurofeedback treatment.
Our approach is characterized by person-centered therapy, with all the care and individual adaptation in the therapeutic relationship. Using techniques from neurotherapy, the process of symptom relief is accelerated and well-being is improved.
We have the possibility to perform therapy both in person and online.
EMDR therapy
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is a psychotherapeutic method developed by Francine Shapiro in 1987. This therapy is primarily used to treat trauma-related disorders and has been shown to be effective in reducing the symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other conditions linked to traumatic experiences.
Numerous studies have shown EMDR to be effective in treating PTSD, and it has also been successfully used to manage other problems such as anxiety, depression, grief, phobias and chronic pain. Clinical guidelines from organizations such as the World Health Organization (WHO) and the American Psychiatric Association (APA) recommend EMDR as a first-line treatment option for PTSD.
EMDR therapy is a comprehensive and structured approach that helps patients process and overcome traumatic experiences, significantly improving their mental and emotional well-being.

FAQ
No, the treatment is non-invasive and completely painless. The electrodes themselves do not transmit electricity, but only measure the brain's own electromagnetic signals, which are sent via an optical fiber to a transformer. It converts these into digital signals that can be measured (EEG).
The improvements achieved after 20 sessions are expected to be lasting and permanent.
No, brain training does not require training at home. All training takes place during treatment at the clinic.
No, studies in Neurofeedback started back in the 60's. NASA has been using Neurofeedback since early on to reduce stress, improve concentration, focus and endurance for its astronauts. and continues its active research in the field. Recent technological developments have made great strides in both neuropsychology and increased its availability in clinical application.
For many people, 10 sessions can bring noticeable improvement, often resulting in lasting improvements after 20 sessions. For more severe psychiatric conditions, a few more sessions may be needed on an individual basis.
Each session costs SEK 1400. Investigation and assessment may vary in price depending on the complexity and scope of the investigation.
