After a car accident Gail was diagnosed with a traumatic brain injury (TBI), Neurofeedback was a Godsend for her. She became curious about Neurofeedback and all the ways that it was being used. She wanted to get Neurofeedback to as many people as possible! Her private practice was too full to accommodate Neurofeedback so she called on some friends to help and together they created Portland Neurofeedback, LLC.  The PATH Center; (Portland Attachment & Trauma Healing) is a sister clinic in the same building. All the clinicians at The PATH Center are trained in LI and EMDR and several are trained in IFS. Therapists consult with Gail on a weekly (if not more) basis.
