Welcome to Neuro Development Services

Neuro Development Services offers an innovative approach to assessment and treatment for children, adolescents and adults who are experiencing difficulties because their brains aren't working as well as they might. We have harnessed the latest advances in the areas of applied neuroscience and computer technology to develop a flexible, person-centred intervention that is respectful of the dignity of the individual.

While our specialisation lies in the area of developmental disorders such as Autistic Spectrum Disorder, Asperger's Syndrome and ADD/ADHD, we also provide services for those with depression, anxiety, sleep disorders, learning difficulties, mild traumatic brain injury and other brain based difficulties. All services are provided by specialist psychologists and can occur either at our Sunshine Coast clinic or remotely via the internet. Flexibility is the key. Since our clinic is across the road from the surf beach at Alexandra Headland on the beautiful Sunshine Coast, many families opt for a week's holiday here while undertaking assessments and training in how to run home-based interventions such as neurofeedback. They are then able to confidently continue their tailored intervention at home under our supervision.

Our services include:

Neurofeedback

Neurofeedback is a powerful non-invasive means of training the brain to improve its performance by providing real time feedback of EEG brain wave activity. Published research indicates that neurofeedback can produce dramatic improvements for people with epilepsy, ADD/ADHD, substance addiction, Autistic Spectrum Disorder and a variety of other conditions.

Haemoencephalography

Haemoencephalography (HEG) is a recently developed non-invasive technology that is used to improved cerebral bloodflow in the brain. While it may help with a variety of conditions, new research shows that it provides significant improvements for people with Autistic Spectrum Disorder, particularly when frontal lobe dysfunction is evident.

The program is the winner of state and national awards.
