Neuro feedback brain-training (NFBT) has a significant presence in the literature for its efficacy in alleviating the symptoms and behavioral manifestations of a broad spectrum of mental health disorders, with no enduring negative side-effects. NFBT is a behavioral intervention in that it teaches the brain to better manage its own brainwave activity. Barriers to implementation in clinical and subclinical settings include cost of equipment, lengthy indepth training requirements, and a lack of clear guidance in developing and implementing brain-training protocols specific to each individual’s brain-phenotype. Automated NFBT systems demonstrate equal efficacy as clinicianguided EEG Systems. Further, advancement in these systems provides scalable affordability, reduce the training requirements for brain-trainers, and significantly increase the effectiveness of all other behavioral and therapeutic interventions. We propose that automated brain-training can be implemented in a wide variety of clinical and subclinical settings by person’s qualified persons qualified by their understanding of behavioral training.
