Real Life Stories - Neurofeedback and Autism

Autism affects every individual differently - but many autistic children, teens, and adults struggle with sensory overload, emotional dysregulation, sleep issues, and communication challenges. Medication often doesn’t address the root of these problems. That’s why more families are turning to neurofeedback as a safe, gentle way to support brain regulation.

At Executive Brain Mastery in Sydney, we specialize in Dynamical Neurofeedback®, a unique, non-invasive form of brain training that supports nervous system balance without pressure or stimulation - making it ideal for neurodivergent clients.

Common Challenges We Support

Whether the client is verbal, non-verbal, Level 1 or Level 3, we frequently support:

  • Overwhelm or meltdowns from sensory triggers

  • Sleep difficulties or nighttime restlessness

  • Rigidity, repetitive behaviors, or shutdowns

  • Social withdrawal or difficulty expressing needs

  • Emotional volatility or anxiety

Dynamical Neurofeedback® helps the nervous system become more stable, more flexible, and less overwhelmed.

How Does Dynamical Neurofeedback® Work?

Our system passively mirrors the brain’s electrical patterns back to itself in real time. Through simple audio feedback (like music with interruptions), the brain starts recognizing its own over- or under-activation and shifts toward better regulation.

🧘‍♂️ No focus or tasks required
🧠 No side effects
🎧 Just listening to sound while sitting or lying comfortably

We’ve supported clients who:

  • Are non-verbal or have intellectual disability

  • Cannot tolerate traditional therapy environments

  • Are already in therapy but need better emotional stability

Our priority is to help your (or your child’s) brain feel safer, calmer, and more adaptive — without trying to change who they are.

Parent Testimonials

On top of real-life examples and that could be found on YouTube videos from the scientific symposium in Canada (Presentation 1 and Presentation 2) - we thought you may be interested in learning about actual changes that clients and their families experienced in our Sydney Neurofeedback Clinic after just few sessions…

TESTIMONIAL 1

“Our 10-year-old daughter has Level 3 autism. She is non-verbal, had severe sleep issues, frequent meltdowns, aggressive behaviour, and couldn’t concentrate. Life was extremely challenging for her and our whole family.

Consultation with paediatric specialist We tried medication, which helped briefly, but stopped working—even at higher doses and side effects was worsen later .

Then we found Executive Brain Mastery and started neurofeedback therapy with Vlad. After just 16 sessions, the changes have been truly remarkable. She is now calmer, sleeps well, more emotionally regulated, and—most excitingly—her speech is gradually developing. This is something we didn’t think was possible so soon.

Vlad has been amazing—knowledgeable, responsive, flexible, and genuinely caring. The clinic environment is quiet, calm, and ideal for children with sensory needs.

This therapy has been life-transformational and truly amazing. We are so grateful for the progress our daughter has made. Highly recommended for any family looking for meaningful, lasting change
Thank you Vlad !!”

TESTIMONIAL 2

“My son who is 17 years old non verbal level 3 started working with Vlad on the 8th of Feb 2025 and within 1 month and 3 weeks my son became calmer and sleeps better , focus better . His awareness increased and no more medication . Smiles more often more eye contact . More patient and more tolerant with other people .

Vlad has amazing core skills and qualities being empathy and compassionate, active listener , strong and clear communication , flexible , appreciation and genuineness.

Before I contacted him , most of my son’s therapists gave up on him due to his behaviour so I was so frustrated myself why I can’t get any therapists that can help my son , so I got on the website and there I saw the website about brain “ Executive Brain Mastery” I did call and Vlad was so prompt and in the morning we went into his place and my son instantly love it didn’t refused to take off the electrodes .

Vlad is so patient and very helpful and now I have more support people to support me and my son .

Forever grateful !”
