Bradford is one of the BEST therapists out there and I don't say that lightly…read more I've been to lots of therapists over the years and they've SUCKED. Bradford is completely different from other therapists and he can honestly create miracles and change his patient's lives! I've sought therapy with him a couple times in the past, and he stood out to me completely. Recently I was dealing with a huge issue with another person that has built up for several decades and I decided we should both go to therapy as a last resort. I knew there was no way I could even consider another therapist. Bradford truly stands out from the crowd. We came in the session somewhat doubtful, but I knew if a change could happen, Bradford is THE person to help us do it. Sure enough, the session went amazing, and we came out feeling hopeful, something I didn't think was possible. We learned lots of new methods that we're starting to implement into our lives and we've done a complete 180! He is worth every penny.

This is a long overdue review for The Balanced Brain. I had been looking into Neurofeedback in Los…read moreAngeles area for over a year. I have always been intrigued with how wonderful our brains are and just wanted to improve anxiety that had been part of me since childhood, along with improving my brain performance in general. I would tell myself I just wanted to feel "normal". I went through a very difficult experience late last year that left me with high levels of anxiety and severe PTSD. In all honesty, I felt broken. I was in survival mode for many months. My goal was to get better without medication. I did thorough research and finally decided to go with The Balanced Brain and I am so glad I did. From the very beginning, John was incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and compassionate. He took the time to listen, understand my needs, and provide thoughtful guidance throughout the process. I was very nervous during the intake process and my very first appointment. The team helped ease my anxiety. They were very caring and reassured me that my brain wasn't broken. My thought process was a mess. I was a mess. Instead of a one-size-fits-all program, they adjust the training based on how your brain responds. I loved this because my brain was being trained based on MY needs. The team took the time to really understand my history and how my brain and nervous system were functioning. They also look at lifestyle, nutrition, stress, and other factors that affect brain performance. A combination of tools were helpful to the Neurofeedback sessions, such as coaching with Madison, lifestyle guidance, HeartMath, bloodwork to go in depth the health of my brain and body, etc. What I appreciate most is that the focus isn't just on symptoms, it's about helping your brain learn to regulate itself better. This was huge for me. The changes were gradual but meaningful. I started sleeping better, felt calmer during stressful situations, my resilience increased. Instances where I'd be triggered were no longer a thing. I can even go to the nail salon now without anxious thoughts! Everyone at the office is very friendly and professional. They were all very supportive and genuinely interested in helping me improve. I am eternally grateful for them being by my side through it all. I even got to meet some wonderful people also doing Neurofeedback. Sharing stories and experiences was one of my faves! I officially finished my 60th session and plan on continuing in the future for maintenance. John (and the entire team) create a welcoming and supportive environment where you feel cared for as a person, not just a client. His generosity, patience, and dedication truly reflects the kind of human being he is. He is incredible! I am very grateful for the support and positive experience I had working with him. Give the Balanced Brain a try, you will NOT regret it. It has been the best thing I have ever done for myself!

Ask me what I don't love about Dr. Jay Fibus? Seriously,…read moreGOOD LUCK finding a therapist like him and his associates--I truly mean that with all the love in my heart, but read on if you've landed on this review and you're "shopping around" for a new therapist or were referred to him by someone. No joke, the guy is a freaking genius. Cambridge graduate and has applied the most unique skills in our therapy sessions. I loved meeting in his office and never thought I would be okay with zooming into our sessions because of the pandemic, but oh my gosh--they've AWESOME because of how vulnerable I can still be from the comfort of my own home. In a nutshell, my husband left my son and me, almost losing my job, my home, and custody of my son (prior marriage). Dr. Fibus not only helped me pick up the ashes of where my life was but he sat in the trenches with me as I was sitting in the dung. Let's just say the depression of co-dependency was far too much and I didn't reach self-care and healthy until I opened up and got real with him. He then helped me walk through the dark rooms of my mind which I had vowed to never let anyone in. He held my hand metaphorically and walked me up the stairs to life's reality so I could sing again from the mountaintops. Therapy takes time and unless you are thirsty for it, don't bother. It'll be a waste of everyone's time, treasures, and skilled talent. But when you do decide that your life has gotten to a point where it's led you to this review then understand this of yourself, it's time to make the call and I hope it's to Dr. Fibus. I was so fearful of going because I didn't want anyone to see the hurts, but in doing so, I've gained all that is good back into my life and then some and they're here to stay. I will never say it's easy, never. It takes mental work and your willingness to open up. It's NOT easy. It's the weak that say therapy is a bunch of crap. To that, I say hogwash! It takes so much work to rewire a marriage, a relationship or your mind. So again, unless you're willing to be serious, don't bother. Dr. Fibus gave me permission to self-reflect on the trials and circumstances that led to the healing of the negative and ugly scars of my life. He did it such a funny and gentle way that I never imagined in a million years I would have the perspective I do about those moments. I have learned to embrace them all and allowed myself to finally become more vulnerable and a feeler in my life. I didn't realize the techniques because they came naturally to our conversations and nothing about it was awkward like I had envisioned they would be when "sitting in a therapy session." My life was super far from being screwed up--I just had to learn the fabric of my own DNA and realized in time that life, indeed, is beautiful. He's respectful of both genders and gave me security and compassion when my husband left. He never made it awkward when I would sit for a while and lament and just cry out. He was above reproach and respectful to my ex when he made that decision to stay focused on my journey without being biased. When I ask him a question he is so direct but with a light hearted charm that made me go back out into the world and reestablish my life and identity. He's taught me what healthy boundaries are and worked with me on the darkest days of my depression. He's helped my son out in a few sessions along with his associate who my son just adores and can call up at any moment knowing if he needs an outlet, they are there for him. It got really rough when his step dad had just walked out me but on him too. I have learned that being a successful single mom can be messy, difficult, and imperfect but that it can also be organized, easy, and perfect on some days. I see life as progressive where as before I was looking for perfection; felt I was letting down others; or would anger easily if the person I was co-dependent on would "let me down." The struggles were real and now they're struggles that are super manageable. He's referenced reading material that I thrive at when given quiet moments to read. He taught me that audible books on the way to work can re-wire my brain if I lend myself 20 minutes just to work on myself daily. I take compliments and see the beauty of my journey and how far I have come. I see all of the beauty and thrive from the scars to know that each one them has a story for someone to hear them at the right moment. With all the experiences I've had, I can relate to just about anyone where as before I wanted to depend on a person to make me happy and hide from the world. Don't even overthink it, pick up the phone and just make that appointment, I promise you--you will NOT be disappointed!

They are both wonderful people and highly compassionate. I owe it to them for learning effective communication and the psychology behind it. Dr. Vinni has excellent neurofeedback services. If you struggle with depression, anxiety, anger, ptsd, sleeping problems, etc., he is really good at helping easy those things drastically over the course of just a few sessions. I noticed a huge difference in my mood and sleeping problems. While you're watching a show or movie, your brain is really rewiring itself, creating and locking in new neurons. You feel so relaxed when you come out of the sessions. It makes you feel like you're in the clouds without any side effects. It truly works!

Joy's amazing. If you're looking for an extremely knowledgeable and skilled Neurofeedback…read morepractitioner who's a delight to work with, call Joy. I've been coming to Joy since April and have seen the benefits of her work in my life. Everyone close to me has. More relaxed, calmer, at peace...able to process situations more quickly and in a much more objective manner. Able to let go more quickly and keep moving. Better sleep, more able to establish and maintain healthy habits. My personal and professional life have improved greatly. The list goes on. I've been so excited by the results I've seen, I end up being that person who brings up the new thing in their lives in every new conversation. "Have you heard of Neurofeedback?" Joy's been at this for 29 years, so she has a deep well of experience to draw from in terms of where to get started and how to adjust in real time to keep the positive results flowing. She has a background in nursing, which seems to keep her curious and tenacious (in a kind, warm way) in figuring out how to be of most help. When you think about it, nurses are presented with life or death situations regularly and have to use empathy, observation, and experience to quickly come up with solutions. There's no one-size-fits-all as a nurse and Joy brings that dynamic ability to her Neurofeedback work. I called just about every Neurofeedback person in LA and OC and, while they were all engaging and bright, I got the sense they were sort of working from templates...come in for a brain map, do some analysis, come up with protocols, and go. Joy leaves so much room for each unique brain and how it responds over time. And she's so passionate about it still...it's amazing. Joy has been deeply involved in the field all along, so not only is she a talented practitioner, she's a walking textbook. She can answer any question and do it in a way, with metaphors especially, that makes even the most complex stuff easy to understand. The biggest question seems to be, "how does just sitting here looking at a monitor...without even having to think about it...help me so much more quickly and thoroughly than years' worth of other modalities?" Joy's got the answers--more importantly, she's got the skills to make it happen. Even with all that experience and knowledge, Joy's really humble and down-to-earth. No need to have a big ego when you have the confidence of mastery in your profession. She's extremely easy to talk with and feel comfortable around. I know Neurofeedback can seem a bit mystifying. Honestly, it was a leap of faith for me despite all the evidence it works. And let me tell you - it does indeed work. It's an investment in your well-being but it pays dividends and starts doing so quickly. If you're like I was and are considering getting started but have questions and aren't sure who to talk with or get started with, I recommend to you, as I have so many others, to call Joy and jump in. Thanks, Joy!
