Program Pricing
Program pricing at The Balanced Brain reflects the full structure of our integrated brain training program in North Hollywood, serving clients throughout Los Angeles. The program includes qEEG brain mapping, neurofeedback, cognitive assessment, coaching, and individualized support.
This is not a quick fix or a single service.
It is a structured investment in how your brain functions day-to-day.
Most people who come to us have already tried multiple approaches — therapy, medications, supplements, or other modalities. Some of those may have helped, but something fundamental still wasn’t changing.
This program is designed to help the brain learn more stable and efficient patterns over time through a structured process that integrates training, physiology, coaching, and real-world application.
If you’ve landed on this page before exploring the rest of the site, it may help to understand that this program is not structured like a typical symptom-focused service or a series of isolated sessions.
Brain training program pricing reflects more than session time; it includes assessment, planning, neurofeedback, coaching, and individualized support.
The investment reflects a longer-term, integrated process designed to help the brain and nervous system change patterns over time — combining assessment, training, coaching,
and physiological support into one coordinated approach.
What to Expect
This process is not designed to provide immediate relief in the first few sessions.
Some people notice early shifts.
For most, meaningful and stable change develops over time.
If you are looking for a fast, symptom-focused solution, this is likely not the right fit.
Who This Work Is For
This program is not for everyone—and that’s intentional.
The process is a good fit for people who are ready to take an active role in their own change process.
You don’t need to have everything figured out, but you do need to be willing to engage consistently—
with the training itself and with the factors that support it, like sleep, daily patterns, and follow-through.
It tends to work best for people who have already tried other approaches and recognize that insight alone hasn’t created the change they’re looking for.
Who This Is Not For
This is not a passive or quick-fix model.
It’s not a good fit for those looking for a single intervention, a short-term solution, or something
that works without meaningful participation.
It may also not be the right time if your schedule or current circumstances don’t allow for consistency
over several months.
Why We Structure It This Way
This program is designed as an integrated process, not a menu of separate services.
Brain training without sleep, physiology, and lifestyle support often plateaus.
Coaching without changing brain patterns often creates insight without lasting change.
Data without implementation rarely changes daily life.
The components are included because they work together.
Neglecting one changes the process.
What Program Pricing Includes
Understanding program pricing is easier when you understand what is included, why the process is structured, and how brain training differs from short-term symptom management.
The initial program brings together several components that are designed to work as a cohesive process rather than as separate services.
We begin with qEEG brain mapping and cognitive assessments to understand how your brain is currently functioning. This gives us a functional map that helps guide the training process rather than relying on guesswork.
From there, the core of the work is neurotherapy—typically around 40 hours—completed over several months. This is where your brain begins to learn new patterns through direct feedback and repetition.
At the same time, coaching focuses on the factors that support or interfere with that learning, including sleep, nutrition, stress, and daily implementation. Without these in place, progress often stalls or becomes inconsistent.
We also look at physiological contributors through functional lab work and review, helping identify underlying factors that may be affecting brain performance.
Throughout the process, protocols are adjusted based on both objective data and your real-world experience, allowing the training to stay responsive rather than static.
At the end of the initial program, we review changes, assess what has shifted, and determine what—if anything—makes sense as a next step.
How This Work Is Done
Every aspect of this process is designed and adjusted by real people who understand you.
Your brain maps are not processed through automated systems or standardized algorithms. They are reviewed and interpreted by Terah Chesbro, our analyst, and the protocols are developed and refined by us 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 and more automated ways to do this work. Increasingly, programs rely on pre-set protocols or AI-generated analysis to scale.
We have chosen not to take that path.
Because the people we work with are unique—and the patterns we see are never generic.
What we offer is a more deliberate, individualized process. It requires more time, more attention, and more clinical judgment.
That is part of what this investment reflects.
We believe in the value of being seen, understood, and worked with directly,
by another human being who is paying attention.
Program Investment
The initial program investment is $15,000.
This work is a comprehensive process rather than a collection of separate services. It typically unfolds over approximately 4–6 months, with most clients attending 2–3 sessions per week.
This is not a quick fix or a single service.
Our program pricing reflects the full structure of the work: assessment, qEEG brain mapping, neurofeedback, coaching, and follow-up support.
It is a structured investment in how your brain functions—day to day, under real conditions.
Questions About The Program
Why is the program structured this way?
The program is designed as an integrated process rather than a collection of separate services. Brain training, assessment, coaching, and lifestyle support work together to help the nervous system learn and stabilize new patterns over time.
We have found that lasting change is more likely when the process is coordinated and adjusted based on how each person responds in real life.
Is this billed per session?
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.
How long does the process usually take?
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.
Why combine coaching with neurofeedback?
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 approach resonates with you, the next step is a conversation to determine whether the program is a good fit for your goals, history, and readiness.
