The Drake Treatment Plan

To ensure the highest possibility of success we must all work together: the family and our treatment team at the Drake Institute.

The result of the Evaluation and Brain Mapping will be used to form a plan for successful care based on the individual needs of each patient where symptoms are linked to brain map findings. We begin treatment upon the completion of the Evaluation and Brain Mapping.

 

Our comprehensive treatment plan includes:

  • 34 Neurofeedback treatments for ADHD.
  • 42 Neurofeedback treatments for Autism Spectrum Disorder.
  • 30 Biofeedback/Neurofeedback treatments for Anxiety Disorders (PTSD, Insomnia, Panic Attacks included).
  • At times and when recommended, Neurostimulation treatment sessions may be used in lieu of Neurofeedback sessions.
  • After every 3 treatments, to further assess patient progress, parents, children (over 7 years old) and adult patients fill out feedback forms.
  • qEEG Brain Mapping is repeated mid-way through treatment program at no charge.
  • Periodic meetings with parents or patient.
  • Parent/patient education regarding ADHD and secondary disorders such as Auditory Processing Disorders (including receptive and expressive language deficits, and impaired reading comprehension).
  • Parent/patient education regarding the biofeedback/Neurofeedback process.
  • Effective parenting techniques for ADHD children.
  • Teaching a behavior modification system for home and school.
  • Tools for parents/family members that will help the patient generalize the Neurofeedback process at home and school or work. This is necessary for long-term and lasting change.
  • Ongoing Assessment for added care needs, referrals provided as needed.
  • Support to facilitate stress and conflict reduction in the home and to promote a healthier, more positive environment.
  • Support to help alleviate relationship difficulties between siblings, parents and/or spouses.
  • Follow-up for one year after treatment completion.
