Emotional and physiological regulation
Anxiety, panic and persistent overwhelm
Anxiety may involve sudden panic, constant tension, rumination, or insecurity. Biofeedback and neurofeedback can help people observe and practise influencing selected physical and neural responses.

Different forms of heightened alertness
Panic attacks can involve a racing heart, shortness of breath, dizziness, and a sense of losing control. For other people, diffuse anxiety, avoidance, irritability, or continuous inner tension are more prominent.
When the nervous system shifts rapidly into alarm, a small trigger can produce a strong physical and emotional response. The symptoms are real even when there is no immediate danger.
What is assessed before training
We discuss triggers, bodily responses, frequency, course, and previous treatment. This helps determine whether biofeedback, neurofeedback, or another form of support may be suitable.
New and severe physical symptoms require medical assessment. An acute crisis or suicidal thoughts require immediate professional help.
Concrete feedback on responses
Biofeedback can show how breathing, heart rate, or muscle tension responds to stress. Neurofeedback provides feedback on selected EEG activity. Training is intended to support earlier recognition of warning signs and practise regulation.
- Recognise physical warning signs earlier
- Practise breathing and activation in a safe setting
- Observe responses to demands gradually
- Coordinate findings with existing treatment
Alongside psychotherapy and medical care
Psychotherapy and, when indicated, medical care are central for anxiety and panic disorders. Neurofeedback and biofeedback may be used as complements. Evidence differs by method and condition.
Discuss anxiety responses and overwhelm
An initial conversation helps us understand the responses affecting you and whether complementary regulation training may be useful.
