Dr. Petta was a life saver for our granddaughter. I called her needing help and she jumped into action. Our granddaughter was struggling with meltdowns and outbursts at daycare/school and home.
Dr. Petta worked out a treatment plan and she is 180 degree change. I never heard of Neurofeedback before but it works. My husband even goes to her to manage his Anxiety and PTSD. Would highly recommend her.

I have been working with Dr. Petta and Michael for over two years. During this time I have made amazing progress from where I was when I first started the program.
Neurofeedback has been monumental with helping to retrain my brain from past trauma, anxiety, OCD as well as helping me to build my self confidence. I would highly recommend Neurofeedback with Dr. Petta, it has been life changing for me.

I have had a great experience and results working with Dr. Petta and Michael. Since starting the neurofeedback, my profound insomnia has resolved and I have been sleeping deeply, through the night and extremely restful.
I find my ability to “respond” instead of react to external stimuli has really improved and thus has made a difference in my overall well being as an employee, co worker and family member much better. The sessions themselves are very relaxing and I enjoy talking with Dr. Petta and Michael as a bonus! I can’t recommend enough. Thank you

It has been a relatively short time under the care of Dr. Petta. I have had four sessions, and within the first 2, I noticed a difference in my life and mind. There was some hesitance when it came to seeking help; nonetheless, I feel that Dr. Petta’s expertise has been life-changing. Their guidance and support have enhanced my performance at work and school and transformed how I approach challenges.
I highly recommend Dr. Petta to anyone seeking exceptional support in achieving their goals. As for me, I wanted to become the best version of myself, but I did not have a map or clue on how to get there. Through smart goals, I have set better boundaries with my loved ones and built healthy habits for school, work, and home. I have struggled for years, but I feel more free and in control of my life with Dr. Petta.

Dr. Petta is the best!! I’ve been to about five or so therapists over the years, but Dr. Petta has made the biggest difference for my mental health. The healing she’s helped me achieve is beyond my expectations and from the bottom of my heart, I’m so thankful.

In-short, We are very happy with the new skills and lifelong abilities that our son will now forever posses. He will be able to use these tools as a life long to aid in managing his ADHD. We would recommend Neuro feedback to anyone who is looking for a permanent alternative to medication. Our son started Neurofeedback training at age 8 and attended two 60 session treatments over the course of about two years. After the pre-treatment screening he was diagnosed as having severe ADHD.
At that time he was showing symptoms of sudden, uncontrollable bursts of anger, rage, hypertension, severe emotional instability, hyper activity and the inability to focus. He had an extremely short and touchy fuse. After being set off, he couldn’t calm himself down for hours. His symptoms were very hard to work with because you never knew what was going to set him off or how long he could tolerate things (like homework or changing activities) or how severe the reaction would be. In addition to the emotional side, he was unable to maintain focus on things for even short periods of time which made learning and comprehension very difficult for him.
School during the day was almost pointless. He’d not retain, or sometimes even understand, the days lessons due to lack of focus. Nightly school and homework was a huge chore. It had become an emotional and nerve racking challenge for both him and us. We began seeing some minor changes at first in his emotional stability after about 3 months of sessions. Over the course of the next 9 months we saw phenomenal changes in his ability to self regulate his emotions. Eventually, we started seeing some changes to his ability to focus and learn for longer periods of time (from only 5 minutes, now to 7 or 10 minutes) closer to the end of his first 60 sessions.
We began to see improvement in his ability to self regulate and the emotional and enraged outbursts progressively became fewer and fewer. They had gone from once or twice a day to once every week or so (AMAZING!). Nightly homework became less of a struggle and started flowing much better because he was able to stay focused longer. We noticed that he was starting to retain a little more and more of the day’s school lessons.
The second 60 sessions did not show as drastic and as many changes as the first but has shown something we never expected: He now not only “can” but WANTS time daily to just sit and relax, playing quietly by himself. For our “Energizer Bunny” to want time to sit and relax by himself for 30-45 minutes daily is a huge change. In conclusion, we would definitely recommend Neurofeedback training.

Neurofeedback therapy with Dr. Petta has been making a tremendous improvement in my sleep quality and my quality of life! Dr. Petta is a kind and compassionate provider and her presence is very therapeutic as well.
Update on 02/10/2023: Over the course of consistent neurofeedback sessions with Dr. Petta, I have been able reduce my sleep medication dosage significantly while sleeping much longer with better quality, which has improved my health drastically and allowed me to return to work full-time. I highly recommend neurofeedback with Dr. Petta! It has truly given me a new lease on life.

Like many others, I was skeptical of the efficacy of this, and yet brain plasticity just made SENSE. Dr. Petta really understands her field and explains everything so well. She also incorporates your whole being, since the body does indeed keep the score.
So after my first round of treatments, I can say with full conviction that it does help my stress, tension, reactions and state of mind. I am definitely more relaxed, laugh more, and feel the difference when I am speaking to my spouse, or to others in a stressful situation. I can take that split second to monitor my words, to double check what I want to say and I also find myself laughing out loud more, when before I would just think “that was kind of funny” but not laugh about it.
That inner tension spring has relaxed. My husband has noticed a significant change as well. And best of all, the changes don’t relapse – your brain re-trains for good!

Dr Petta and Michael are great! I highly recommend them for Neurofeedback. They have helped me tremendously with overcoming trauma symptoms after a particularly stressful time in my life. This treatment works if you are willing to dedicate the time. 5 stars!

Dr. Petta has been amazing with both of my girls. Neurofeedback has been very beneficial for my family. My youngest has shown improvements in her sensory processing disorder, anxiety, and her compulsive issues have gotten better. She went from hating school to loving school. It is so great to have my loving sweet daughter back.
My oldest has shown improvements in her energy and motivation. She has been wanting to play outside more and exercise. I have seen improvements in her anxiety and she is more social than she was. It is so nice seeing her talk to other kids instead of just sitting there quietly. Neurofeedback and working with Dr. Petta is the best decision my family made.
Updated Review: Both my girls have been doing neurofeedback sessions for quite a while and I can’t express how happy I am with the results. When we started neurofeedback, I never thought we would ever see the amazing improvements we have seen. Neurofeedback was a great piece to helping both girls. We also worked on their diets which helped with the results we saw. Our whole family is happier because of neurofeedback. My oldest is 13 and she went from being a shy quiet child to an outgoing and very happy teenager.
She loves school. She has a great group of friends she is involved in after-school activities and involved at church. She has overcome a lot of her fears, especially her fear of heights. It is amazing to see my child happy and healthy. My youngest is 11 and the improvements we have seen are beyond amazing. She has OCD, sensory processing, and severe anxiety. She would have meltdowns every day, especially at school. She hated going to school.
Her grades were not great, and she missed a lot of days of school because her meltdowns were so bad. We couldn’t ever go anywhere because we never knew if she was going to have a meltdown. Now she is the calmest and happiest child. She hasn’t had a meltdown in over two years. Her grades have improved a lot, she loves going to school. We have taken multiple vacations and she did amazing. She can handle stressful situations and not react.
If you are on the fence about doing neurofeedback, I promise you will not be disappointed. It was the best investment I could ever have made for the health and well-being of my child and my family.

We are very happy with results of the neurofeedback therapy. Our daughter needed help with depression, anxiety and social interaction; especially during Covid lockdown. Dr. Petta provided great support during the therapy.
Our child received efficient outcome. Her social life and relationship with close family improved significantly. We appreciate Dr.Petta’s patience and willingness to work with our child that resulted obvious positive change in her behavior. Thank you for being with us in this journey!

I was advised by my Dr. at the Mayo Clinic to look into biofeedback/neurofeedback for my fibromyalgia. Something I had never heard of before. I was in chronic pain from my fibromyalgia from my neck to my knees on almost a daily basis. I felt fatigued every day to the point that I had to talk myself into getting out of bed every morning because almost every inch of my body ached as if I had just ran a marathon and got a sunburn at the same time.
The pain was so severe that it was all I could focus on. It got to the point that I could no longer see passed my diagnosis. It was almost as if I was fibromyalgia instead of having fibromyalgia. I had severe brain fog and would forget things I had just learned, as well as experienced not being able to find the words I needed to speak. I contacted braintrain4You LLC and spoke with Dr. Petta. We had an initial consult and I signed up for a 40 session package for neurofeeback/biofeedback. Fast forward to approximately 6 months later, I am a completely different person in a positive way.
Neuro and biofeedback has changed my life in ways that I didn’t know were possible. My pain has diminished almost completely and when it does appear on occasion, it is very mild and doesn’t last nearly as long. My memory is unstoppable. I can remember everything and I’m no longer having issues coming up with words when I speak. I sleep much better and I have learned a lot of skills to calm down my anxiety when it does appear. I highly recommend Neuro/biofeedback for anyone with issues from anxiety to Fibromyalgia, or anything else in-between.
I am back to being my old self again. I recognize who I am after all of my sessions.I am laughing and smiling all of the time and love who I am. I have accepted the fact that I’m not fibromyalgia. I am a person who has fibromyalgia and I refuse to let it consume me. Neuro and biofeedback has saved my life and I believe it could save yours too if you take the first step by calling and setting up a consult. You never know, like me,it could give you you’re life back.

We brought our 14yo son to Dr Petta because he was struggling with anxiety, depression, extreme lack of self esteem, suicidal thoughts, negative self talk – you name it. This experience has been amazing – physically watching his brain CHANGE. He’s only half-way through treatment and already a different kid.
He handles tough situation with resilience when previously he would have spun far down into depression. His confidence is unlike it’s ever been. He went from a child who could hardly even be in the room when we discussed his challenges the first time with Dr P because he was so full of self loathing and so distraught- to now he walks in to his sessions on his own. He was very skeptical at first and I told him “the nice thing is that you don’t HAVE to believe it for it to work”.
Now he sees the difference it’s made. I’m blown away by how effective this treatmentj is and I wholeheartedly encourage any parent whose child is suffering like mine was to call her. It’s the greatest blessing we have ever found.

When I started Neurofeedback I was very skeptical, I simply did not think it would help me. I’ve been going to talk therapy for years battling depression and anxiety. I was finally at my breaking point when I decided to try it, and I figured it couldn’t hurt to try.
To my surprise, slowly but surely I noticed positive changes in my state of mind. I’m more motivated, well rested, and even more confident. Brain training pulled me out of my horrible mindset and is helping me live a more fulfilling life.

Neurofeedback has made an improvement in my life. It has helped lift the fog that I felt my brain was constantly in. It has lessen my anxiety and made it easier to deal with difficult and stressful situations. I’ve become more accepting of things outside of my control and now have a more peaceful mind.
For me, it did take almost the full 20 sessions to feel the full effect. My changes were subtle, but impactful and permanent. I feel that it helps uncross any wires in your brain that got crossed because of past trauma or years of depression. There is still work that I must do for myself, but the neurofeedback has made it so much easier to do that work. I plan on continuing my training to work on other areas in my life that I want to improve.

Neurofeedback has been a game changer in teaching my brain how to sleep again. After a long spell of insomnia, I began this training and quickly saw that my sleep was drastically improving.
Within weeks I was able to maintain a normal sleep schedule by using a combination of neurofeedback as well as Dr Petta’s additional guidance. I am very thankful for the help I received and would recommend this treatment to anyone!
Philip Swanson
Neurofeedback has given me my life back. Dr. Petta is absolutely incredible. I had been going to her for talk therapy for over 6 months before I finally decided to try neurofeedback (with Dr. Petta’s recommendation). Although talk therapy was beneficial, I would find myself in similar patterns that I couldn’t break out of. After the first session of neurofeedback, I was stunned.
I started to feel like “myself” again- It was like being released from a mental prison. Everything I had been feeling was confirmed through my brain scan. We started focusing in on the areas that needed improvement, and I was / am astonished with the results. Everyone around me can see the enormous change that I’ve made.
Before starting neurofeedback- anxiety, panic and depression were apart of my every day life. I was paralyzed and unable to complete any of the things that used to be “easy.” I can proudly say, 6 months later, that NONE of these things are apart of my daily life. I now have mental space to deal with the stress of life.
I no longer find myself going back to the patterns that once held me captive (for years). Dr. Petta has helped me to create HEALTHY routines and healthy ways of dealing with my stress and anxiety. Neurofeedback will be apart of my life, FOREVER! I could shout from the rooftops, because anyone can change their life with this incredible tool!!!
Rachel Price
Dr. Petta and her skilled program of both Bio and Neurofeedback is the part of my healing process I have been missing. I am a veteran that has gone through the VA treatment for PTSD and although it helped I did not feel it was complete.
I have found a new level of internal peace and happiness that I truly had forgotten existed. Her program has help in ways that are so profound I can feel hope. My Wife, Child and self all thank her and I am indebted to her for her help. I can not say it enough, If you are struggling and looking for help then stop looking and make an appointment. This was the best decision I have ever made in my treatment.
