The brain needs healthy amounts of fast-moving and slow-moving brain waves in order for it to function in the most optimum way. Neurofeedback, a form of biofeedback, works to change the electrical activity of your brain. It is a non-invasive treatment that works towards improving the source of your unwanted symptoms.
By placing electrodes on various regions of the brain, we observe your brain from moment to moment. We show you your brain activity, your brain observes itself and is directed to increase self-regulation and relaxation- which are both very necessary for good brain function. The technology helps the brain figure out what is missing and what is needed.

The Paul Wellstone and Pete Domenici Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act of 2008 (MHPAEA) is a federal law that generally prevents group health plans and health insurance issuers that provide mental health or substance use disorder (MH/SUD) benefits from imposing less favorable benefit limitations on those benefits than on medical/surgical benefits.
I was not a believer in neurofeedback until my patients returned from neurofeedback under Dr Kakaiya's direction, and had been remarkably improved. Dr. Kakaiya is among the best psychotherapists in SD County, and one of the few to whom I refer my patients. I have become a neurofeedback believer, especially in my patients who have any level of anxiety.
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recognizes EEG biofeedback as a "Level 1" - "Best Support" intervention for Attention & Hyperactivity Behaviors (ADD and ADHD) for "Evidence-based Child and Adolescent Psycho-social Interventions." The American Academy of Pediatrics is a board of over 60,000 pediatricians that determines the levels of evidenced-based treatments for children and adolescents.
Dr. Kakaiya has been practicing Psychotherapy since 1985 and is a true visionary in her field of Psychotherapy and Neurofeedback. She is a seasoned expert in the field of brain conditions and neurofeedback and has made presentations at numerous professional and lay conferences over the last 18 years.

Report
Our family found Healthy Within from one of their ads in a magazine. Working with Dr Kakaiya and her assistant Kate has been a wonderfully positive experience for my family. We have found that both Kate and Dr Kakaiya are kind, caring and compassionate and it is evident that they want the best for their patients. They have built up a sincere and trusting relationship with my family, and have done their best to accommodate our busy schedule. If you are experiencing difficulties within your family, I strongly suggest that you schedule an appointment with someone at Healthy Within.
