At Foster the Mind, we use the proven power of neuromodulation and neurostimulation to help children, adolescents, adults, and families overcome complex mental health challenges. This non-invasive, brain-based therapy gently influences the brain’s electrical activity to encourage balance, resilience, and lasting wellness.
Neuromodulation uses gentle electrical or magnetic stimulation to target specific areas of the brain. By guiding neural activity back into balance, this therapy can reduce symptoms and restore healthier brain function.
Research shows neuromodulation can bring relief to individuals struggling with:
Depression
Anxiety
PTSD and developmental trauma
ADHD and focus challenges
Other neurological and psychiatric conditions
Our brains communicate through complex networks of neurons firing electrical signals. When those signals are disrupted, mental health challenges can appear. Neuromodulation helps by:
Restoring Neural Balance – Adjusting overactive or underactive neurons for healthier function
Enhancing Neuroplasticity – Supporting the brain’s ability to heal, adapt, and form new pathways
Targeting Key Brain Regions – Focusing on the specific circuits tied to each disorder for the greatest impact
Decades of research support neuromodulation as an effective tool for improving mood, focus, and emotional regulation. For many families, it provides a path to healing that traditional treatments alone cannot achieve.
At Foster the Mind, we combine this science with compassionate care—helping everyone move closer to wholeness.
"I wholeheartedly believe that Bryan and Foster the Mind are the primary reasons for my son’s transformation and success."

No, Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) uses a much higher level of electrical stimulation. In our experience, TMS treatment may be more expensive than our approach, is typically not EEG-guided for each patient and doesn't include counseling or talk therapy. We find our gentler, highly targeted and individualized treatment based on brain mapping to be more effective.
Traditional neurofeedback requires patients to be very still and concentrate intensely for long periods of time. Even blinking can set back progress. Most patients find it frustrating and may end treatment before seeing any results. This treatment modality is especially difficult for children. In contrast, our neurostimulation therapy requires no effort or concentration. It does most of the work for you.
Treatment sessions last for an hour (including setup time).
Patients are typically treated 2–3 times per week and the schedule may be adjusted as progress unfolds. More frequent treatment is sometimes recommended for out of town patients or traumatic brain injury patients to offer greater improvement in a shorter time frame.
Most patients begin experiencing changes within a few sessions. Because every brain is different, we don’t know up front the total number of treatments to reach the desired outcome. We do work with patients for as long as needed to achieve relief and are known for taking on and resolving challenging cases.
Treatment sessions at the clinic are $250. In-home sessions are billed at a higher rate.
At this time, we are not aware of any insurance plans that cover our treatments. You do have the option of using your HSA (Health Savings Account) to pay for treatment with pretax dollars. We look forward to the day when this proven therapy is covered by insurance!
