qEEG brain mapping
Where we start. A 19-channel quantitative EEG, read against age-matched norms, with swLORETA source localisation. The picture that anchors the whole programme.
Each modality is selected for the patient — not applied as a package. The qEEG and clinical picture decide what's used, in what dose, in what order. Here's the full set we draw from.
Where we start. A 19-channel quantitative EEG, read against age-matched norms, with swLORETA source localisation. The picture that anchors the whole programme.
Operant-conditioning training of EEG features identified as dysregulated. Surface-based protocols and swLORETA-guided z-score training, depending on the picture.
Heart-rate variability biofeedback at resonant frequency, with respiration and electrodermal feedback. Strong RCT support across anxiety, burnout, and performance.
Vestibular, ocular-motor, balance, dual-task, and cerebellar work — drawn from concussion rehabilitation and applied neurology.
Targeted dietary input where intake history indicates contributors — alongside (not instead of) GP and dietitian care.
Mindfulness-informed practice, breath-work, and body-based regulation skills that pair with biofeedback. Skill-building, not therapy.
A typical in-clinic programme runs ~10 weekly sessions over 12 weeks. We don't pick the modalities up-front. We assess first — qEEG, autonomic markers, intake, validated questionnaires — and the formulation tells us which levers are likely to move the symptom.
We re-measure with a reassessment qEEG at week 11 and a side-by-side comparison report at week 12. If the data isn't moving in the direction we expected, we change the plan rather than waiting out the calendar.
Four tiers of care
Every tier uses the same methodology — examination first, then targeted intervention. Choose the depth that fits your concern, your timeline, and your budget.
A short educational questionnaire screening your three core networks — Default Mode, Salience and Central Executive — with a personalised starting protocol.
Full 14-network mapping, 16-region BRLF screening, a 30-day guided programme and content library — lifetime access, re-take any time.
Everything in Tier 1, plus a Polar H10 sensor shipped to you, real-time HRV biofeedback in the NeuroZen app, a daily 3-minute diary, AI-driven weekly feedback and monthly progress reports.
Everything in Tier 2, plus in-clinic qEEG at the start and again at week 11, a weekly in-clinic visit for 12 weeks, personalised swLORETA neurofeedback, and a clinician-led plan designed by Dr Ash.
All tiers complement, not replace, your GP, psychologist, or psychiatrist. We co-care.
The 14 brain networks
qEEG analysis maps activity across the brain's major functional networks. The picture tells us where to intervene — and how.
Self-referential thinking, rumination, mind-wandering
Attention switching, threat detection, interoception
Working memory, planning, cognitive control
Motor control, body schema, sensory integration
Emotion processing, memory consolidation, drive

We work alongside — not in place of — primary medical and psychological care. We do not diagnose neurological or psychiatric conditions from EEG, and we do not prescribe or alter medication. If you or someone you know is in crisis, call 000 or Lifeline 13 11 14.
Two ways to begin
Examination, not assumption.
Take the free Brain Health Snapshot to orient yourself, or book a consultation with Dr Ash Connell. Both are easy to step away from, and either way you’ll leave with a clearer picture of what’s actually going on.
