It is unfortunate to hear that neurofeedback works, while also knowing that it is a treatment only open to the very, very rich. In fact, one might question the legitimacy of "proof of concept" if only rich people are subjects. Here's what I mean: I looked up what it would cost to get just an initial course of treatment in my community. $6000.00. As we know, that is cash out of pocket, as no insurance covers the treatment. Tis a rare American that has 6k cash tucked under their pillow.

I was just thinking something similar. And of course, it isn't just the cost for neurofeedback--it's also the investment for therapy. I was astonished to hear that Sebern Fisher does 150-350 sessions of NF with her clients. Who on earth has that kind of money?
