Option 1: At-Home Neurofeedback, Self-Led or Guided Live
This option lets you train at home with equipment Sound Mind loans you, either self-led on your own schedule or in live sessions guided by Sound Mind. It’s the most flexible way to train and often the fastest way to complete a training plan, because you can train more often than a weekly appointment allows.
What’s included:
- Loaned neurofeedback equipment for home use (nothing to purchase)
- Pricing for at-home training varies (self-led or guided live), and we’ll go over options in your free consultation.
- Train self-led on your own schedule or in live sessions guided by Sound Mind
- Protocols set by Sound Mind for each training session
- Remote progress monitoring by Sound Mind
- No commute: train anytime at home
Before you start: an initial intake session ($150) and a qEEG brain map ($600, done in person) help us build your personalized plan. Self-led at-home training is typically not billed to insurance. Guided-live at-home sessions may be billable to insurance, depending on your coverage.
At-Home Training With Steadywave by Sound Mind
At-home training runs on Steadywave by Sound Mind: an easy-to-use headset and an app for Mac, Windows, or Android tablets that responds to your brainwaves while you watch your favorite shows. Train self-led, or with us guiding you live. Pricing for at-home training varies (self-led or guided live), and we’ll go over options in your free consultation. Explore Steadywave or book a free 15-minute consultation.
Option 2: Use Your Insurance for Live Remote Sessions With Sherri
If you have insurance, you can schedule live remote neurofeedback sessions with Sherri and use your benefits, subject to your individual plan and coverage. Sound Mind is in network with BCBS/Anthem and Aetna (coverage depends on your plan). If another company insures you and your plan includes out-of-network benefits, we can give you a superbill (a detailed receipt) to submit for reimbursement.
Please confirm your benefits with your insurer before scheduling. The steps below show you how.
In-Office Neurofeedback in Mooresville
Prefer to train with a clinician in the room? In-office sessions take place at 108 Gateway Blvd, Ste 206, Mooresville, NC 28117. They let us train multiple areas of the brain in one session, and they’re a good fit if you’d rather not manage the technology yourself. In-office sessions are $150 each, or you can save with a 10-session package ($1,250) or a 20-session package ($2,000). In-office neurofeedback sessions can be billed to insurance, and your cost depends on your individual plan.
Why You Don’t Have to Buy Neurofeedback Equipment
Some programs ask families to buy a home device. We don’t. Neurofeedback works best when a trained clinician chooses and adjusts the training protocols, so Sound Mind loans the equipment and we set and monitor your training. You get the convenience of training at home without a large upfront purchase, and when your plan is complete, the equipment comes back to us.
How to Check Your Neurofeedback Benefits
Call the member services number on your insurance card (or check your online portal) and ask:
- Is Sound Mind Counseling & Neurotherapy in network with my plan?
- Is biofeedback/neurofeedback covered? If so, how many visits, and do I need pre-authorization?
- Are these codes covered: CPT 90837 (neurofeedback sessions with a therapist) and CPT 90901 (sessions with a technician)?
- Does my plan require a specific diagnosis for coverage?
- Do I have out-of-network benefits?
- What is my deductible, how much has been met, and what is my copay or coinsurance?
- For remote sessions: do I have telehealth coverage in North Carolina or Maryland?
Write down the representative’s name, the date, and a call reference number.
About qEEG brain maps: qEEG codes include CPT 95816, 95957, and 96132. Most insurance companies will not cover a qEEG unless it is for epilepsy. We prefer to use CPT 96132 (neuropsychological testing and reporting). For reference, see these coverage documents: BCBS of North Carolina, Anthem BCBS, and Aetna’s policy on qEEG brain maps (reimburses only for epilepsy).
Paying Out of Pocket
We offer HSA/FSA options to make brain training more accessible. If you’re uninsured or not using insurance, you’re entitled to a Good Faith Estimate of costs before services, and we’re happy to provide one anytime.
