Join Us: Filling the gap between Psychiatry and Psychology

BrainTrainUK’s vision is to establish Neurofeedback as a mainstream alternative to medication or therapy. Neurofeedback improves nervous system regulation, enables traumatic memories to be processed without thinking about them, and exercises and strengthens brain functions.

Just like physical therapy, repeated sessions enable the nervous system and brain to learn to operate more efficiently on its own. With considerable untapped potential for the UK, Neurofeedback fills the gap between pyschiatry, neurology and psychotherapy. It has been shown to improve symptoms of irregular brain function including trauma, depression, ADHD and epilepsy and around the world is fast becoming recognised as an effective treatment process.

Occasionally, we have specific vacancies, but we are always interested in meeting outstanding people.

For the right person, in the right location, we will invest to set up a new practice.

We offer 3 opportunities:

1. Neurofeedback Practitioner
2. Neurofeedback Technician
3. Licencee (for existing therapists or local authorities)

Neurofeedback Practitioner

You will develop training programmes for clients, offering them full support. In this multi-faceted role you will conduct the initial client consultations as well as make new and on-going appointments, developing the practice and client base. You will have ample opportunities to develop and expand your role and demonstrate your teamwork and mentoring skills with a growing team of Practitioners.

You will be exceptionally bright, hold a Master’s degree and be a quick learner, naturally curious and passionate about making a difference. You must be comfortable and experienced in discussing symptoms with clients and determining appropriate approaches.

You should also be comfortable working on your own, although you will be given all the training and support you need.

We are uncompromising in our selection of potential Practitioners and have strict entry criteria. A Master’s degree in a related subject is a prerequisite, unless you have many years of highly-relevant clinical experience (e.g. Nurse Practitioner).

To work at BrainTrainUK, Practitioners must demonstrate a proven ability to work within a client-practitioner relationship and be able to cope with the challenges presented to those relationships within the field of mental health.

Our training approach models that of leading medical schools, to support our multiple-modality approach to Biofeedback and Applied Neuroscience and our multi-disciplinary culture.

Technical classroom training on the technology is an essential part of the process and we now do this predominantly in-house. Even more important are clinical methodology and practical training and the essential skills that make an effective and trustworthy clinician, through shadowing, case studies, operational and client relationship training, and ongoing support from the UK’s leading practice.

At BrainTrainUK, not only do we have our own internal support from the UK’s only multi-disciplinary Neurofeedback practice, we also have direct support from the world’s leaders in the field from clinical, scientific, engineering and research disciplines. Our support network includes Dr. Siegfried Othmer, Dr. Bernhard Wandernoth and Dr. David A Kaiser.

We view Neurofeedback as an important part of medicine that the medical community are still learning about. We complement and augment conventional medicine.
