With our Certificate in Biofeedback and Neurofeedback, you can help patients gain control of their own health. Learn powerful mind-body intervention skills to help treat a host of medical issues that defy conventional treatment without side effects.

Saybrook University’s Certificate in Biofeedback and Neurofeedback is designed to prepare you for certification from the Biofeedback Certification International Alliance (BCIA). Additional BCIA requirements, including an anatomy and physiology class, supervised experience, and an exam, are posted at: www.bcia.org.  Students must document access to biofeedback instrumentation including at least three modalities, and preferably access to neurofeedback instrumentation as well. The Certificate comprises three academic courses, two residential conferences, one graduate colloquium, and a capstone integrative essay.

Requirements


CIMHS students already take two 1-credit Graduate Colloquia and have an assigned mentor. They will not need to take this additional one-credit Graduate Colloquium. If you are a current student in the CIMHS or in another Saybrook degree program, talk with your faculty mentor about enrolling for this certificate.
