11. Dr. Roseann Capana-Hodge - Neurofeedback, Bio Feedback & Integrative Wellness
Dr. Capanna-Hodge is a trailblazer. She has been in holistic healthcare for 30 years. She is a compassionate, generous, learned and experienced psychologist who uses multiple modalities (neurofeedback, biofeedback, psychotherapies, nutrition, coaching etc) to improve and restabilize children’s and adults mental wellness. Being a traditionally trained psychologist, when her patients were not improving she knew she had to think outside of the box in order to help them improve. Thankfully this was earlier in her professional career and she sought alternative treatments. She should really be anyone’s first stop for mental wellness treatment in order to be your last stop. In her center she only uses proven science based treatments in addition to vetting her providers well. It was an honor to meet her and share an hour for this interview. I am ready to fly to Connecticut and get my own consultation with her! This is another DO NOT MISS interview with an inspiring clinician!
