As a specialist neurofeedback and integrative psychiatry clinic, ZenWaves Clinic has a holistic approach to treatment. Medication is just one of many treatment options available for mental disorders. We also prescribe neurofeedback, supplements and lifestyle changes. Our aim is to deliver long-lasting improvement, so that your life is better even after treatment ends.
This approach is especially effective if:
Dr Sharma is an acknowledged expert neurofeedback practitioner. He supports clients with mental disorders including ADHD, anxiety, brain injury and PTSD.
Dr Biswas has a growing reputation for treating ADHD.
Many of our clients present with more than one condition. We develop customised treatment plans which address all conditions.
This list covers the mental disorders we treat most frequently. If you have, or think you have, a condition not listed below, please contact us to discuss your situation in confidence. We may be able to assist ourselves or we may be able to recommend a specialist practitioner.
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is much misunderstood, which means it is often incorrectly treated.
People with ADHD have difficulties paying attention, and also controlling impulses. This combination disrupts day-to-day activities.
Children with ADHD are usually inattentive, fidgety and easily distracted. They often act without thinking. Treatment and support help them focus so they can fulfill their full potential.
Diagnosis of ADHD in adults is increasing over time. High levels creativity and spontaneity mean adults with ADHD have much to offer, if they can manage their energy and attention effectively.
At ZenWaves Clinic ADHD treatment options include
QEEG results also help us predict your response to medication. We can select options which are likely to work better for you, with fewer side effects. In some cases, we can reduce or even eliminate the need for medication through neurofeedback.
“Reception are lovely and informative. Dr Dona Biswas is fantastic, listens to you and not dismissive at all. Brain mapping is a great process and very informative.
Glad I was able to find ZenWaves to help with my ADHD.”
Nearly one in 70 Australians has a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
Presentations range from the severe (“Childhood Autism”) to milder forms (“Asperger’s syndrome”). With so much variation, personalised treatment for Autism is essential.
ZenWaves does not offer diagnostic services for ASD. However, we provide neurofeedback for clients with Autism, for which there is no satisfactory pharmacological treatment.
Neurofeedback has been shown to lead to significant improvements in both dysregulated behaviours and core symptoms of Autism.
Anxiety can be triggered by many different stimuli. You may have generalised anxiety, worrying constantly about health, finances, family, work and more. Perhaps you have OCD, a panic disorder, a social phobia – or you are afraid of specific objects, animals or situations.
Conventional treatments, like cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) and antidepressants, help some but not all people with anxiety. Our anxiety treatment plans are individually tailored to you. They may also include targeted supplements, heart variability training and neurofeedback.
Depression affects all aspects of your life – mood, sleep, appetite, ability to function. Most of all, it affects your happiness.
Treatment-resistant depression is increasingly common. At ZenWaves we take an integrative approach to the treatment of depression. We tailor a plan for you which includes multiple treatment types, from neurofeedback to supplements to lifestyle changes.
PTSD and Developmental Trauma are some of the most difficult mental health disorders to treat successfully.
Conventional treatments include psychotherapy, attendance at support groups and medication. In many cases, there is little significant relief. If you have buried traumatic memories deeply for self-protection, talk therapies rarely help.
Our psychiatrists often recommend neurofeedback when more conventional treatment has had limited success. Dr. Sharma has developed a reputation in helping individuals with PTSD and developmental trauma find relief through neurofeedback, after interventions like medications and talk therapy have been unsuccessful.
Whether you have ADHD, anxiety, PTSD or another condition, the core ZenWaves approach is the same. We work with you to identify root causes of your mental disorder before developing a treatment plan. Our aim is to address those root causes of rather than simply suppress symptoms.
Our approach emphasises neurofeedback and other less invasive methods as much as or more than medication. It may be the right solution for you.
