Would You Like to Receive Professional Training in Neurofeedback?
The Center for Brain Training offers a unique course in neurofeedback. We have very small class sizes and an intense focus on practicum. We are also recognized for our ability to take highly complex information and pare it down to clear and easy-to- understand information. Our course is taught by one of the great teachers in the field of neurofeedback - Michael Cohen.
"Mike Cohen's skills and ability to teach those skills are a valuable resource to anyone looking to learn Neurofeedback." - Andrew Sethe, Ph.D. Lord Sterling School, NJ
"Michael is dynamic and knowledgeable. He makes complicated material understandable, taking a very step by step approach. He can work with beginning, intermediate and advanced levels. He's not only skilled as a teacher but he has a wide knowledge of equipment without necessarily being locked in to any one approach. He's been instrumental in helping our practice grow over the last several years." - Barry Belt, Licensed Psychologist, Certified School Psychologist
"Mike has been the single most valuable resource in my foray into the field of neurofeedback. As a teacher, Mike listens carefully and delivers his message in as many ways as needed for his students to learn. As a consultant, Mike can analyze a situation, technical or strategic, and make a series of recommendations, honestly examining the advantages and disadvantages of each. As a resource for information and networking in the field, Mike has no peer - he talks to everyone, the newcomers, the veterans, the researchers and the entrepreneurs - and he takes the time to understand what each is up to. In summary, when I have an idea or a question related to neurofeedback, Mike is the first person I think of to contact."- David A. Mitnick, M.D., Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist, The Center for Neurofeedback and Integrative Health, Inc., Paramus, New Jersey
"Having co-taught this course on two occasions with Mike, I can tell you that Mike is a terrific teacher. He seamlessly integrates the clinical with the technical aspects of our work. You will learn how to get the most out of the software - how to use your eyes, ears, brain and clinical judgment to know what to look for on the screens, what to look for in your client, and what to do with all those keys on your keyboard. Let's face it, to do this work effectively and confidently, we have to be good clinicians and good technicians. This is the course that will help you put it all together."
- Edward Jacobs, Ph.D., Londonderry, NH, Author of ADHD: Helping Parents Help their Children
"We have found Michael's insights and theoretical model to be invaluable to us in our very active practice. His perspective has provided a framework to further our understanding and use of neurofeedback. He's been an amazingly knowledgeable resource for us. Phone consultations have not only furthered our grasp of the field, increased our confidence level in our own work, but inspired us with our clients, which is the reason we're here anyway." - Avery Bratt, Ph.D. and Laura Bratt, AHA Psychological Services, Kansas City, KS
"This course was incredibly well done. Mike is an unbelievable educator. He started with general information and built a framework around it, then filled in the details. It was brilliant. It was practical and hands on. He gave enough information so that if people were intending to have a practice, they could go forth and use it. It was absolutely great!" JM Stuart, FL

Course Description
The Center for Brain Training not only offers help to individuals seeking assistance in overcoming their troubling symptoms, it also provides professionals a place to learn and train in neurofeedback.
Director of Training Michael Cohen has helped hundreds of therapists and psychiatrists over the last ten years to learn and master neurofeedback. It's not easy to get started in neurofeedback. There can be too many options, too much confusion, and a steep learning curve.
As a solution, the Center for Brain Training offers the QUICKSTART Neurofeedback Course. QUICKSTART is an efficient, intensive course focused on "how to do neurofeedback”.
In addition to the basics, the course provides a broad view of the field, including discussions of different protocols, models, and instruments. Topics include electrode placement, frequencies and amplitudes, understanding an EEG, brain mapping, arousal states, theta/beta ratios, and more. There are discussions on various symptoms and issues that clients might present, and a review of the potential solutions. Students spend time running actual sessions. It is a course designed to prepare you for what you need to know to begin your own practice in neurofeedback, including various challenges you might face.
After years of teaching courses around the world to numerous clinicians, Michael Cohen pared this course down to an efficient and effective three-day intensive. The class size is kept intentionally small to allow for direct hands-on experience, precise focus, and an opportunity to become a productive practitioner quickly.
There is an immense amount of information to learn in neurofeedback. QUICKSTART provides simple, clear explanations for a very complex subject. There is a strong emphasis on practicum in this course. Why? To learn neurofeedback one must see it being done and practice applying it.
After completing QUICKSTART you will be better prepared in a shorter period of time than any other course in the field. Once you have the real basics down, you can learn much more effectively from every other course or book.
For further information about the course, you can email us HERE or contact the Center for Brain Training at 561-744-7616. To find out more about Michael Cohen’s background and experience in teaching, go to www.AboutNeurofeedback.com and click “About”.
