Neurocognitive Therapy
About Level Up
Level Up is a Neurocognitive Therapy program designed to target executive functioning skills such as attention, impulsivity, working memory, task completion, organization, auditory processing and self-regulation. It is facilitated by Registered Psychotherapists who understand ADHD and related challenges. It combines the core elements of our ADHD Coaching program with additional tools including neurofeedback, movement-based activities, and mindfulness to improve sustained attention, concentration, and self-regulation.
A core component of Level Up is neurofeedback, which monitors brain activity in real time using advanced, NASA-inspired technology. Unlike traditional EEG headsets, Level Up uses the BodyWave® armband, which measures brainwave activity through the skin and provides immediate feedback on focus levels. Clients control computerized activities using only their focus. As attention improves, the program progresses automatically, helping the brain learn to sustain focus more naturally over time.
Level Up can benefit children (age 5+) children and adults who want to improve focus, emotional control, and cognitive flexibility.
Focus and Attention
The neurofeedback component of the Level Up program allows clients to visualize their attention in real time by controlling on-screen activities solely with their focus. The BodyWave® armband measures brain activity by detecting beta and theta waves, which are closely linked to focus and mental drift, and provides immediate feedback to help regulate attention. This non-invasive approach promotes healthier brainwave balance, making attention tangible and trainable, and ultimately enhancing cognitive function and sustained focus.
Balance and Movement
Level Up integrates balance and physical movements to enhance auditory, visual, and motor planning. These interconnected systems work together to strengthen neurotransmission and calibrate brain functions. Balance, in particular, plays a crucial role in improving focus by requiring the brain to process information from different senses, leading to more efficient sensory integration. This enhances neural connectivity and communication between brain regions, ultimately boosting cognitive functions and the brain's capacity for sustained focus.
Mindfulness & Biofeedback
Level Up incorporates mindfulness practices, such as mindful breathing and body scanning, to train individuals to stay present and fully engage with the current moment. Regular mindfulness practice enhances cognitive control, improving the ability to regulate attention and behaviour in alignment with goals. This improved self-regulation helps individuals resist distractions and maintain focus. Additionally, mindfulness exercises have been linked to changes in brain structure and function, particularly in areas associated with attention and self-regulation, supporting improved attentional control and sustained focus.
Level Up also integrates biofeedback for nervous system regulation. This allows individuals to monitor and adjust their physiological responses, further promoting self-regulation and focus.
Level Up Neurocognitive Therapy is a psychotherapy service. As such, this program may be eligible for reimbursement by private insurance/group benefit plans.
