Program Pricing & Investment

What’s included, what it costs, and what this work asks from both sides.

Program Investment: $15,000
Initial program · 4–6 months · 2–3 sessions per week

That covers qEEG brain mapping, roughly 40 hours of neurofeedback, coaching, physiological review, and ongoing adjustments — priced as one program, not billed session by session. If that number gave you pause, the sections below explain why — and help you figure out if it’s the right fit for you.

Most people who come to us have already tried other approaches — therapy, medications, supplements. Some of it helped. Something fundamental still wasn’t changing.

Our program isn’t a typical symptom-focused service, and it isn’t a series of isolated sessions. It’s a longer-term process that combines qEEG-guided training, coaching, and real-world application into one coordinated approach — which is what the investment actually reflects, not just time in a chair.

What Program Pricing Includes

Understanding what our pricing covers is easier once you know what’s included, why we structured it this way, and how brain training differs from short-term symptom management.

Here’s what it includes:

We start with qEEG brain mapping and cognitive assessments to see how your brain is functioning right now. That gives us a functional map to guide your training, instead of guessing.

From there, the core of the work is neurotherapy — typically around 40 hours, spread over several months. This is where your brain starts learning new patterns through direct feedback and repetition.

At the same time, coaching focuses on the factors that support or interfere with that learning — sleep, nutrition, stress, daily implementation. Skip these, and progress often stalls or gets inconsistent.

We also look at physiological contributors through functional lab work and review, to help identify underlying factors that may be affecting your brain’s performance.

Throughout the program, we adjust your protocol based on both objective data and your real-world experience, so the training stays responsive instead of static.

At the end of the initial program, we review what’s changed, assess what’s shifted, and figure out together what — if anything — makes sense as a next step.

Why We Structure It This Way

Everything here works as a single process — not a menu you pick and choose from.

Brain training without sleep, physiology, and lifestyle support in place often plateaus. Coaching without changing brain patterns often creates insight without lasting change. And data without implementation rarely changes daily life.

Each piece is in there because it works with the others — skip one, and the whole thing shifts.

How This Work Is Done

Every aspect of this process is designed and adjusted by real people who understand you.

Your brain maps aren’t run through automated systems or standardized algorithms — Terah Chesbro, our analyst, reviews and interprets them herself, and we develop and refine your protocols based on both data and lived response.

This is a hands-on, iterative process. We meet you, we observe patterns, and we adjust based on how your system actually responds — not just what a dataset suggests.

There are faster, more automated ways to do this work. Increasingly, programs rely on pre-set protocols or AI-generated analysis to scale.

We’ve chosen not to go that route.

Because the people we work with are unique — and the patterns we see are never generic.

What we offer is a more deliberate, individualized approach. It takes more time, more attention, and more clinical judgment.

That’s part of what you’re paying for.

We believe in the value of being seen, understood, and worked with directly,
by another human being who is paying attention.

What to Expect

Don’t expect instant relief in your first few sessions. Some people can notice early shifts; but for most, meaningful and stable change develops over time. That’s the nature of any training. If you’re looking for a quick fix, this probably isn’t it.

Who This Work Is For

This program isn’t for everyone — and that’s by design.

It’s a good fit if you’re ready to take an active role in your own change process.

You don’t need to have it all figured out, but you do need to show up consistently — with the training itself and with the things that support it, like sleep, daily patterns, and follow-through.

It tends to work best if you’ve already tried other approaches and know that insight alone hasn’t been enough to create the change you’re looking for.

Who This Is Not For

This isn’t a passive or quick-fix model.

It’s probably not a good fit if you’re looking for a single intervention, a short-term solution, or something that works without your active participation.

It may also not be the right time if your schedule or circumstances don’t allow for consistency over several months.

The Investment Goes Both Ways

Our commitment to you:
A structured program, careful assessment, qEEG-guided planning, ongoing adjustments, many hours of neurofeedback and related work, coaching, education, and practical recommendations to support real change over time.

Your commitment to the process:
Showing up consistently, being honest with us, doing some of the work outside the office, and paying attention to sleep, nutrition, stress, and screen habits — the things that affect how your brain regulates itself.

The financial commitment:
We’re private-pay. We don’t take insurance or provide superbills. The cost reflects the depth, structure, time, and attention that go into the program.

Questions About The Program

Why is the program structured this way?

We built the program as one integrated process, not a collection of separate services. Brain training, assessment, coaching, and lifestyle support all work together to help your nervous system learn and settle into new patterns over time.

We’ve found lasting change is a lot more likely when the process stays coordinated and gets adjusted based on how you’re actually responding.

No. The initial program is structured as a coordinated process rather than isolated session-by-session services.

This allows assessment, training, coaching, and ongoing adjustments to work together within a more individualized framework instead of approaching each piece separately.

Most clients participate in the initial phase of the program for approximately 4–6 months, though timelines vary depending on goals, consistency, nervous system patterns, and life circumstances.

Brain training is a learning process that develops gradually through repetition, regulation, and real-world integration over time.

Neurofeedback helps the brain learn new patterns, but sleep, stress, routines, nutrition, and daily habits all influence how well those patterns stabilize and carry into everyday life.

Coaching helps support the conditions that allow the training process to become more sustainable and integrated outside the office.

If this feels like the right approach, and you’re comfortable with the structure, commitment,
and investment involved, go ahead and schedule a Discovery Call.
