What is Peak Performance Neurofeedback™?
Neurofeedback is a specialised application of biofeedback of brainwave data in an operant conditioning paradigm. It is a learning modality, drugless, painless with no side-effects. It teaches the brain to use the correct brain waves at the appropriate time.

You will learn how to help individuals strengthen appropriate neural connections and networks associated with sustained attention, emotional regulation, cognitive flexibility and rapid recovery.

Our Customer Success Stories
Rated 5 out of 5
I've been diagnosed with ADHD and I've had it for most of my adult life, my professional career. It's really been something that I've been working on a lot. I’ve been a psychiatrist, I've been on medication. And to be honest my life changed the moment, from the moment I started doing the neurofeedback. It was 20 sessions and I would say from probably the third session, my sleep improved significantlY.
From about my fifth session I went off my medication. My concentration is exceptional, I basically feel like I'm 25 again, just starting my professional career. The neurofeedback honestly has changed my life. I feel like it is one of the most significant treatments I've had in my whole life for treatment for ADHD.
I've been diagnosed with ADHD. They've said:
“Focus on the positive side.” “There’s not really a cure for this”. “We can handle this but you'll never operate on a normal level.”
I've just finished a neurofeedback training with Dr. Charlene here in Amsterdam and I'm very excited and confident that God has used her to restore me. I feel different. I have hope again. It's been 18 days with no medicine and I've decided to not use the medicine anymore. And I will continue to learn, I will continue applying this. I can see that I can live ADHD free with this technology.
My journey with Dr. Charlene started in 2021 when I faced some challenges. I started with brain coaching sessions and then we have decided to do the neurofeedback sessions. I've completed 20 sessions of the neurofeedback and I'm so grateful for this opportunity. The neurofeedback sessions has helped me to cope in different situations and to change my mindset and the way of thinking.
