Course content

3 sections19 lectures1h 49m total length
  • Instability5:38

    Explore brain instability and unstable arousal, detailing electroencephalogram patterns like sharp waves, paroxysms, and epileptiform activity, plus thalamic alpha dynamics and external influences, with topics from epilepsy to sleep disturbances.

  • Epileptiform activity / seizures9:19

    Identify epileptiform activity and seizures—spike-and-wave, absence seizures, complex partial seizures, and Rolandic epilepsy—based on EEG patterns and 12 to 15 Hz motor-strip neurofeedback training to stabilize brain activity.

  • Acquired brain injury (ABI)7:33

    Explore how acquired brain injuries from stroke, trauma, or encephalitis disrupt attention and emotional regulation, and learn neurofeedback protocols to improve focus, mood, and sleep.

  • Migraine10:48

    Explore migraine types and neurophysiology, including blood flow changes and EEG patterns, and learn neurofeedback protocols at T3, T4, and other sites to alleviate symptoms.

  • Premenstrual syndrome (PMS)2:43

    Neurofeedback treats PMS by stabilizing hormone-related brain changes with C3/C4 and temporal lobe protocols like T3–T6 or F7–F8, using 12–15 Hz rewards and showing improved word finding and calmer symptoms.

  • Immune system disorders15:38

    Explore primary and acquired immune deficiencies and autoimmune disorders, applying neurofeedback approaches to regulate overactive immune responses, chronic fatigue, trauma-related factors, and EEG-guided protocols.

  • Chronic pain syndromes5:37

    Explore chronic pain syndromes, including complex regional pain syndrome and fibromyalgia, and how neurofeedback calms pain by modulating P4 and anterior cingulate activity.

  • Bipolar and mood symptoms8:55

    Neurofeedback cannot cure bipolar disorder but can improve sleep, anxiety, agitation, and mood by targeting fast wave and beta peaks around 18–22 Hz with A2 or C4 minus A2 protocols.

  • Sleep issues7:07

    Identify how sleep issues affect daily functioning and the symptoms to assess. Apply neurofeedback protocols to address overarousal, underarousal, sleep apnea, trauma, chronic pain, and autism-related sleep challenges.

  • Relationship issues1:03

    Explore relationship issues labeled as unstable arousal and reframe personality disorders as outcomes of developmental trauma, guiding you to trauma-focused protocols for effective neurofeedback treatment.

  • Tinnitus2:10

    Explore tinnitus theories and neurofeedback approaches, including training secondary auditory areas p3 and p4 to reward 12–15 Hz while inhibiting alpha and theta, and compare with kz minus t3 protocols.

  • Quiz

Requirements

  • An understanding of amplitude neurofeedback/frequency band training.
  • An understanding of the international 10-20 system.
  • Access to amplitude neurofeedback equipment that allows you to adjust protocols.
  • Ideally students will have already completed a basic hands-on course in neurofeedback and/or a BCIA certified course in neurofeedback.
  • This is NOT a "basics" or "101" course in neurofeedback. It will NOT introduce "the basics of neurofeedback", nor the technical side of implementing treatment (i.e. how to use equipment).

Description

This course is one of three parts of the single course. The parts are sold separately but this description is for the whole course (all 3 parts combined).


In this course Dr Moshe Perl expands on the classic arousal model used in neurofeedback training, distilling his knowledge of using client symptoms to derive neurofeedback protocols. This knowledge is based not only on his extensive clinical practice, it is enriched by over 20 years of teaching and mentoring - whereby his exposure to cases dramatically increased.


Engaging video chapters cover the following topics: Arousal, Instability, Learning Difficulties, Trauma & PTSD, Obsessive and Motivation Issues, Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) as well as guidance on how to adjust for sensitive clients and other useful extras.


Dr Perl counts many of the world-leading experts in neurofeedback and EEG analysis as his colleagues, teachers and mentors, connections which have influenced his expertise greatly. He is often praised for his ability to take difficult subjects and communicate them in simple, understandable, accessible ways.


4 hours of BCIA recertification (professional development) credit are available upon completion of all 3 parts of this course (each sold separately).


This is not a "basics" or "101" course in neurofeedback. It will not introduce "the basics of neurofeedback", nor the technical side of implementing treatment (i.e. how to use equipment).


This course was previously sold on a different platform. Here are a few testimonials from previous students:


"I am very impressed with the Neurofeedback Protocol Selection course - its content, organization, and Dr. Perl’s clear, to-the-point teaching style."

"I am fascinated by the vastness of the treatment possibilities now that I know there are so many different problems that can be addressed and treated successfully with neurofeedback."

- Myriam Thiele, M.D., Board Certified Psychiatrist, USA


"I thank both Moshe and David for creating this wonderful course which is truly exceptional and inspiring."

"In the Neurofeedback Protocol Selection course Moshe has distilled his years of experience in a way which will help both newcomers and old-hands at this craft. He has organised his immense knowledge in a unique way while expanding the old paradigms of protocol selection."

- Dr Vivek Sharma, MD(Psychiatry), BCN, Australia


"Dr. Moshe Perl has assisted me greatly over many years since I did my initial training with him when he came to Japan."

"This is the perfect video to help us learn and fine tune our skills of neurofeedback training into precision medicine for each client as the symptoms and neurobiological mechanisms may differ greatly among clients even if their diagnoses are the same."

- Aki Tsuchiyagaito, PhD, USA


"The course taught me how to fine-tune what I’m doing with my clients. As a result I’ve seen them making faster progress and big shifts."

"Moshe Perl has such a fluent knowledge of neurofeedback. He’s like a walking encyclopedia, but with a lot of heart... The course exceeded my expectations and was really good value for the money. I would recommend it for any intermediate or advanced neurofeedback practitioner."

- Charlotte Bell, Reg Psychotherapist, New Zealand

Who this course is for:

  • Beginners to intermediate neurofeedback practitioners.
  • Intermediate to advanced neurofeedback practitioners who want to better understand the symptom-based approach to protocol selection.
  • Those who want to access decades of world class expertise in hours.
  • Practitioners wishing to individualize training protocols to respond more directly to client symptoms.
  • Those who see the value of this incredible modality but are unsure when determining the right protocol for clients.
  • Neurofeedback practitioners who want to get 4 hours of BCIA recertification credit by learning through content that is engaging and enjoyable.
