Brain Mapping + Neurofeedback for Kids with Autism, ADHD, and Emotional Regulation Challenges
At Woodlands Psychotherapy and Brain Training, we believe that understanding behavior starts with understanding the brain. That’s why our ABA therapy in The Woodlands integrates advanced neuroscience tools like QEEG brain mapping and neurofeedback. This brain-based approach allows us to create highly personalized, effective interventions for children with autism, ADHD, and emotional regulation challenges.
In the video below, “Neuroscience Informed ABA Therapy,” you’ll see how our unique model helps children not just change behavior—but build better brain functioning for long-term growth.
Why Add Neuroscience to ABA Therapy?
Traditional ABA therapy has long been the gold standard for helping children develop communication, social, and daily living skills. But sometimes, parents are left wondering why progress is slow, inconsistent, or why certain behaviors persist despite hard work in therapy.
The answer often lies in the brain.
Through QEEG brain mapping in The Woodlands, we can see the underlying neurological patterns that contribute to challenges with:
Focus and attention
Emotional regulation
Sensory processing
Behavioral flexibility
When we understand how the brain is functioning, we can design an ABA therapy program that works with your child’s brain—not against it.
What is QEEG Brain Mapping?
A QEEG (Quantitative EEG) is a non-invasive brain scan that measures electrical activity in the brain. This brain map reveals areas that are overactive, underactive, or dysregulated.
For example, a child struggling with emotional outbursts may show high beta activity—a sign of chronic overarousal. A child with focus challenges may have frontal theta excess, a typical marker of inattentive ADHD.
This detailed insight guides both our neurofeedback protocols and our ABA therapy goals, creating a highly tailored treatment approach.
How Neurofeedback Supports ABA Therapy
Neurofeedback helps the brain learn to regulate itself by providing real-time feedback on brain activity. Over time, this process strengthens the brain’s ability to maintain focus, calm, and emotional stability.
When combined with ABA therapy, neurofeedback helps:
✔️ Reduce internal stress that interferes with learning
✔️ Improve self-regulation and attention
✔️ Make behavioral gains more sustainable over time
A Whole-Child, Brain-Based Approach
By blending ABA therapy, QEEG brain mapping, and neurofeedback, we help children achieve:
Better focus and sustained attention
Improved emotional regulation
Greater independence in daily tasks
Faster learning and retention of new skills
Long-lasting behavioral and neurological change
This is ABA therapy informed by neuroscience, designed for families who want to address the why behind the behavior—not just the behavior itself.
