In this episode, I sit down with Lisa Cramer, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor serving Illinois and Colorado, who specializes in brain mapping (QEEG) and neurofeedback therapy. This conversation opened my eyes to how much our brain activity influences learning, behavior, emotional regulation, anxiety, depression, and even how we recover from concussions.

Whether you're a mom, an athlete, or someone navigating stress, this episode gives you a clear understanding of how the brain works and how innovative, non-invasive technology can help support healing and better mental health.

✨ What We Talk About in This Episode

🔹 What Is a Brain Map (QEEG)?

Lisa breaks down what a quantitative EEG is, why it matters, and how it’s used to read your brainwave activity similar to how an EKG reads your heart.

🔹 Who Can Benefit from Brain Mapping?

Anyone kids, teens, moms, athletes, older adults.
Her clinic has worked with ages 4 to 87.

🔹 Signs Your Child Might Need a Brain Map

As moms, we always wonder what's “normal” especially with emotions, focus, or school struggles.

One of the biggest signs: your gut feeling. Moms always sense when something is off.

🔹 How Neurofeedback Works

Lisa breaks this down beautifully and simply

🔹 Anxiety, Depression & the Modern Epidemic

We dive deep into:

• Why anxiety has skyrocketed in kids, teens, and adults
• How social media, comparison culture, and digital overload affect emotional health
• Why many people have unresolved high-beta “fight or flight” brainwave patterns
• Why some people never truly heal with therapy alone if the brain is dysregulated

🔹 Brain Changes After Illness or Head Injury

Lisa explains why things like:

• COVID
• Viral infections + high fever
• Concussions
• Falls
• Old sports injuries

🎧 Listen If You Are…

• A mom worried about your child’s emotions, meltdowns, or learning
• An athlete dealing with concussion symptoms
• Someone who feels “off” and wants clarity
• A parent overwhelmed by anxiety in your home
• Interested in non-medication options for mental + emotional wellness
• Curious about how brain waves connect to your daily life
