I was introduced to Dr. Dave Dubin when he spoke at my children's school about how biofeedback could help with learning disabilities. Some of the other mothers had experienced sessions with Dr. Dubin and found the direct type of Neurofeedback technology to be helpful with their anxiety and their children's ADD. I made an appointment and was looking forward to experiencing it myself before bringing my children in. I'm glad that I tried it myself first! I showed up to my appointment 15mins early and realized there were 2 others in the waiting room also waiting for Dr. Dubin. 20minutes after my appointment time, Dr. Dubin walked right passed us into his office. When I tried to ask him how late he was running behind, he asked if I could just come back later in the day and did not know my name, even though I had scheduled a week earlier and spoke to him on the phone. When I came back later at his request, he again had double booked me! I patiently waited another 35minutes. During our session, he determined I was "hardy" and said he was going to intentionally give me more Neurofeedback than I probably needed so I could see that it worked. This resulted in an awful headache and feeling completely out of it. I don't know why he would intentionally want to cause those effects. He asked that I be patient and try a couple more sessions before stopping. It seemed expensive to continue sessions with no seen benefits. He assured me that he would provide a super-bill to give to my insurance. My insurance covers biofeedback and the Dr assured that patients got reimbursed if their provider covered biofeedback.. Fast forward two weeks--I have wasted 90mins waiting on the Dr. running late, had 2 headaches turn into migraines, treatment provided by a young woman who could not tell me where she was trained in Neurofeedback, and according to my insurance provider the Dr is not licensed in California (or any other state). I will not be reimbursed at all for my sessions and feel violated and taken advantage of. I will be speaking to my children's school who promoted this unlicensed Dr. and his treatment. After speaking to the other mothers at the school, it appears that most of them experienced similar issues with the Dr. but found the Neurofeedback to be helpful so they did not complain. I wish one of them had spoken up sooner and I am grateful that my child was not exposed to this. read more

This treatment actually worked to diminish my anxiety painlessly and quickly. It took a couple months of treatments and the change has been permanent. Can't say enough good things about this! read more

Dr. Dubin saved my life. I have had two traumatic brain injuries within two years. After years of feeling fuzzy minded and confused, I longed for the days that I had a razor sharp memory, quick wit, and not struggling with anxiety. Within the first session, I experienced a calm I had not felt in a long time. Each time I was treated, my ability to live my life with a better memory and free from anxiety increased. I am now a monthly patient, and this truly gave me my life back. If you are having memory or emotional issues from brain injury, especially anxiety, you must go to Dr. Dubin. He has restored my quality of life to that which I previously enjoyed. read more

I highly encourage others to seek treatment from The Dubin Clinic. My mother began to experience severe symptoms of depression and posttraumatic stress disorder after enduring a heart attack and other health complications. After multiple unsuccessful trials of psychotropic medications, and psychotherapy alone, we decided to seek neurofeedback treatment at The Dubin Clinic.Dr. Dubin was patient, understanding, and provided effective treatment. The treatment helped her decrease her symptoms over time with almost no side-effects. She is now less teary, more energetic, and more confident. I will be forever grateful for the treatment she received because it is challenging to for us family members to see our loved us suffer from mental illness. read more

Our family traveled from Honolulu to L.A. so our teenage daughter could receive direct neurofeedback therapy from Dr. Dubin. Long story short, our daughter's severe anxiety and depression dissipated from day one. It was a remarkable transformation that we could see with our own eyes. Our daughter was initially very skeptical and was reluctant to even participate or acknowledge that the treatment was helping her; however, she eventually confessed that she wasn't experiencing anxiety and depression and was surprised direct neurofeedback worked. Thanks to Dr. Dubin, our daughter is doing much better and has turned the corner. We are extremely grateful to Dr. Dubin. He is the knowledgeable, kind, patient and just a wonderful person. read more

I, my children and many of my own patients have been the fortunate recipients of Dubin Clinic expertise and capability to transform an array of emotional, intellectual and psychological issues to successful wholesome results. If I , myself, were not a patient of Dubin Clinic and had not firsthand experienced the miracle that I did, I would have thought the process is an over exaggeration. They are absolutely amazing, professional, to the point and amazingly caring. Thank you David and Meg. read more

I've had mental issues for 30 years. 6 years ago my symptoms were at its worst. I went to see over 4 specialist and I was not getting better. I was misdiagnosed. Then I visited Dr. Dubin, honestly I thought he was not going to help me without meds. So I had 3 sessions with him. Everytime I was getting better. I couldn't believe what was happening. Dr. Dubin changed my life. If your struggling with any kind of mental health, you have to make an appointment and find out on your own. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Do it for yourself. Do it for your loved ones. This changed my family and my life. This is a game changer. read more

Highly recommend this clinic and neurofeedback treatment! I was treated by Emma and felt very comfortable and at ease throughout the process. Both her and Dr. Dubin were professional, caring, and truly went above and beyond to give me the best treatment. I was told that the first 3 sessions were free if I don't see results, which I thought was amazing. It shows that they are confident with the treatment they provide and are not trying to waste anyone's time or money. I felt clarity of mind and a deep sense of calmness after each session and look forward to coming in to see Emma again. Highly highly recommend to anyone dealing with anxiety, stress, ADD, etc. read more

I honestly believe that David Dubin and Direct Neurofeedback has changed the course of my life. Really. Last year, I had something akin to a stroke, affecting my speech, gait, visual, and thinking processes. I was sad, depressed and hopeless and my doctors and I thought that this was going to be how my life was going to be. I play the piano for fun, but it lost its appeal since I had to spell out each chord and play each note, figuring out which note was which. After only my second session of Direct Neurofeedback, I texted David excitedly to say that I could play the piano like I used to - I could feel the music flow through me and my fingers knew where to go! This was historic, and it proved to me that Direct Neurofeedback with David Dubin was working! With regular visits, it has been uphill ever since! Today, I am so much better than I was a year ago and my life has returned (almost :) to normal! David is so kind and smart and I am so grateful for the many hours he has spent with me restoring me to a happier, functioning, and capable person. I can't recommend David Dubin and Direct Neurofeedback high enough. To me, it has been miraculous and it has changed my life for the better. read more

Dr. Dubin and the Dubin clinic has changed my life. I have had extreme anxiety and constant looping of negative thoughts for about 5 years now. I have tried everything under the sun except for this therapy. I felt immediate results and it has helped me get my quality of life back to where I want to be. read more

Highly recommended. The difference is noticeable. It's so much simpler to stay calm and collected now instead of freaking out over every-day-annoyances like traffic and malfunctioning computers. Definitely improves quality of life. read more

So I was initially introduced to the concept of direct neurofeedback and I did my research on it. At first, I was skeptical despite the strong research supporting its benefits. So I have it a go. It's been a God send. I truly have seen the benefits in myself and my family member. I would highly and strongly recommend this to everyone! read more

Dr. David Dubin is one of the best, most caring doctors that I have ever known. His Direct Neurofeedback procedure is painless, incredibly easy, non-invasive and it absolutely works. It will change your life. I will never see another physician in this field and if I ever move away from Southern California, I'll only see who Dr. Dubin recommends. If you struggle with ADD/ADHD, Anxiety, OCD, Depression, Autism, PTSD, or Addiction issues, you must see Dr. David Dubin ASAP. His first appointment is free - what do you have to lose? read more

I came to the Dubin clinic after an auto accident. For 3 months I had zero Imprivement and was in unbearable pain, my world shrank, I could barely get out of bed, vertigo, photophobia, insomnia/nightmares, vertigo ( I could no longer walk unaccompanied or holding onto walls and furniture), language and additional visual impairments, and the anxiety and depression of PTSD hearing the car crashing into mine from behind in my head a million times a day to name a few, made my life a living hell. There are few treatments for mTBI, most of them involving doing nothing and resting ( cause that's the only thing you CAN do) and waiting for it to pass. 3 months in I was still trying to temper the pain with ice. I felt nothing, he asked if I noticed a change, I said no. I don't feel the 'Stim' ( treatment term) or any change. But after a while I noticed my speech was no longer slurred and the light from outside no longer caused me pain, I could move my head more freely and could stand without assistance. Over the next few hours I felt GREAT and then a crash, but over time my baseline started to improve and I stopped feeling a crash. I was able to walk unsupported and tolerated light, noise, movement better. Eventually I was able to go on outings , being outside with people, and go into smaller less chaotic stores, etc. flare ups had a shorter duration after difficulty. Miracles performed daily. read more

A long overdue review. I have been seeing Dr Dubin for over two years now and because of him and the Clarity treatments my life has changed dramatically. I have Lyme disease and a history of depression and anxiety in my family. I am literally depression free after YEARS of battling it. No drugs needed! No side effects either! I was so depressed I had no idea because I was living with it for so long. The cloud has lifted and I can enjoy life once again. I highly recommend dr dubin and the clinic - he is a wonderful doctor (funny too) who truely cares about his patients. He Is all about helping people and he's definitely helped me. I am forever grateful to him. read more

I started working with Dr. Dubin in October of 2020. I had heard about his work previously. So I decided to reach out during a time when I was experiencing more stress that was triggering anxiety on a level I hadn't experienced before. I wanted to see if he could help me naturally, as I am not one to go on medications. I saw him 2x/week for about 3-4 months. Then tapered to 1x/week, every other week, etc. At the one year mark I am on a maintenance of 1 visit every 6 months. Or of course if needed, I know I can reach out to him, for a tune up. His neurofeedback technique is short, simple and to the point. Yet solves complexities and provides a sense of calm, and relaxation for your nervous system that you really can't imagine. Whether you have experienced chronic anxiety and/or depression. Have had a recent trauma or increased stress. Call him. He is worth it. It may take a few sessions to understand how powerful his technique is, so give him some time to help make a positive shift in your life. I am so grateful. Thanks Dr Dubin! read more

I am fortunate and am forever grateful to have found Dr. Dubin. I searched for 14 months to find a cure to the postpartum depression/high anxiety and terror that paralyzed me for much of that time. I spent a small fortune exploring western medicine, eastern medicine, and alternative therapies, diet and supplements.. some of which helped temporarily but still did not relieve me long term. With one treatment from Dr. Dubin, the states I had suffered through for over a year just lifted and never returned. That was over 5 years ago. I tell everyone I know about Dr. Dubin's clinic. Since my treatment his clinic has helped many of my friends and acquaintances. Heartfelt thanks to this wonderful man and the advanced technology he has to truly help people. read more

Dr. David Dubin, a former ER doctor uses a brand of NeuroFeedback called 'Direct NeuroFeedback.' I've personally experienced ALL versions available and see the difference. Do your research, but don't put off contacting Dr. Dubin's office for your first-time complimentary appointment. This therapy may change your life. read more

I have always struggled with anxiety and all the worries and mind chatter that come with this common malady. I have tried meditation, hypnosis, past life regression, exercise, talk therapy and 12 step meetings - these all have their place and have brought me many valuable tools. But until I had a series of sessions with Dr. Dubin, I had never ever experienced complete tranquility and lack of anxiety. He also explains so clearly why this technique truly works! After a series of about 10 sessions, I now only need one session every six months- a "tune up" so to speak. Please try a free introductory session and see how you feel- whether you suffer from anxiety, depression or an addiction to ANYTHING- try this once. I trust Dr. Dubin and his technique to help me live the life of my dreams- worry-free! read more

Dr Dubin's treatment has been life saving. I had been stuck with depression for months until I was referred to him. It has only been 8 sessions but people keep telling me how different my energy and presence are. Don't hesitate in giving direct neurofeedback a try. He has a rare combination of knowledge, experience, and compassion. Highly recommend. read more

Acupuncture, Zoloft, Essential Oils, Meditation, Yoga. Those are just some of the things that I've tried to combat years of debilitating, severe anxiety. While they helped some, none have ever come close to the incredible effects of Dr. Dubin's Clarity Direct Neurofeedback technology. After the first session, I felt a sense of calm that I'd been craving for years. The more you do it, the more it sticks. Although I am early in my treatment, I know with 100% certainty that this has been, and will be, what I've been missing for my entire life. Thank you, Dr. Dubin for changing my life! read more

Direct Neurofeedback (DN), the technology employed by the Dubin Clinic, is absolutely remarkable and very effective. It works by sending an ultra light electromagnectic signal to the brain, resulting in optimized brain functions, and improved self regulation of the brain and central nervous system. In speaking with Dr. Dubin, I have learned that DN benefits many brain related conditions such as anxiety, PTSD, depression, and TBI, in addition to many others. I initially visited the clinic in October of 2016, with an odd malady that isn't perfectly defined by the above conditions, but found the DN sessions to aid me from the very onset of treatment. Since the first session is complimentary, and the technology is energy based and harmless (as opposed to chemical/drug based, which I was averse to), I thought I would give it a try. In general I was never a person experiencing anything like anxiety or PTSD. In the summer of 2016, after suffering from a very painful condition which needed surgical intervention, I began having what could best be described as "panic attacks" leading up to surgery. While I was back to living without pain after the surgery, I continued having the distressful "attacks", often all day, everyday, week after week, month after month. It was as if my system had memorized the dreadful condition, despite the pain being resolved, and relived the trauma over and over. Try as best as I could, I could not override the condition with my conscious mind. What made it especially difficult was the physical symptoms that came along with it. Some of the major ones included a loud whistling in the ears, the inability to hear from one of my ears, hyper sensitivity to sound, multi hour long dizzy spells, unfocused vision, a sense that some powerful electrical current was running through my head, the sensation that my skull was ringing like a bell, a very uncomfortable hyper arousal of the senses, and a general overwhelm that would make me feel exhausted and drained. As I mentioned, I was previously not used to having any of these symptoms, and having them prevented me from participating in many of the activities I used to enjoy. I saw a dozen doctors (MDs) and a long list of "alternative" medicine practitioners, looking for relief. The two most concrete solutions I came across were DN (the Dubin Clinic) and initiating a regular meditation practice. I felt a positive change from the very first DN session. I must make a note here that about halfway through treatment, and this is strictly my own personal experience, I seemed to get slightly worse just before getting much better. At the time of writing this review I have had about 30 sessions, but I felt a permanent shift for the better at around a little over 20 sessions (since roughly April). While I still have a few symptomatic days here and there, the symptoms are far milder and have receded into the background. I am now able to enjoy living my life to the fullest, like I used to, and have the self assurance and confidence that at some undefined point in the future I will be completely, 100%, symptom free. Thank you to DN and the Dubin Clinic! read more

I can't say enough good things about David and Meg, they were warm and professional, and helped me to feel better. I had dramatic results from my first (free!) session! read more

By the second visit, my daughter was experiencing some benefits. Within 1 month we began to see ENORMOUS improvements. After 5 months, I would venture to say, Dr. Dubin and neurofeedback has changed the course of my daughter's life. It is almost unbelievable. We will be forever grateful and will do our best to spread the word about this incredible treatment! read more

Dr. Dubin, this is to express much appreciation for your fabulous treatment that resulted in the elimination of my severe PTSD that was the result of a near-death auto accident this past January. As you know, I was involved in a head-on collision caused by the driver of a Dodge Ram truck that hit me head-on, totaling the Toyota Camry I was driving. The PTSD was caused by the fact that I did not see the truck before it hit my car. It seemed like the truck \"came out of nowhere.\" The effect was that thereafter I became intensely anxious every time I rode in a car after the accident: Trying to avoid driving myself whenever possible, and becoming extremely agitated and anxious when riding as a passenger. Your treatment has eliminated the PTSD. I can now drive without being anxious and am able to ride as a passenger without feeling any loss of control. -AMT May 30, 2017 read more

My daughter started going to the Dubin Clinic because of working memory issues that relate to a visual processing learning disability. I had her tested by a neuro-educational psychologist before and after my work with the Dubin Clinic. I have been incredible impressed with the results. My daughter's grades improved and so did her ability to memorize for tests. And the results have held. She is still doing better and it has been over a year since our first appointment. Her working memory significantly improved on the after test I did with the psychologist. Both Dr. Dubin and Meg are professional and well trained. We did many sessions, about 24 or 5 and she still has tune ups occasionally. We are not out of the woods with the learning disability issues, but this made a big difference for us. I recommend the modality and specifically Dr. Dubin's clinic. read more
