🧠 Why research matters to us at ANFI

At ANFI, we believe in exploring every avenue to support healing when traditional therapies aren’t enough. Research is at the heart of this work — it helps us understand how neurofeedback can make a real difference for people experiencing profound trauma.

Our Director, Mirjana Askovic, recently reflected on a publication that draws on over two decades of clinical work with refugees affected by war, torture, and displacement. It highlights the ongoing potential of brain-based interventions to rebuild cognitive and emotional resilience.

For us, this is more than a study — it’s a commitment to advancing evidence-informed care and ensuring no one is left behind.

EEG work can be complex — particularly when supporting clients with trauma histories. Having space to reflect, ask questions, and deepen understanding matters.

ANFI’s EEG Mentoring Services provide clinicians with tailored, one-to-one support to build confidence in EEG analysis and clinical interpretation. Sessions can include reviewing raw EEG data, exploring spectral patterns, coherence measures, ERPs, ICA, LORETA, and discussing clinical implications in a collaborative, trauma-informed way.

Mentoring offers more than technical skill-building — it provides a safe, professional space to think critically about challenging cases and refine clinical judgement.

🧠 Clinician Tip: Optimise Your Neurofeedback Sessions

Small adjustments in sensor placement can significantly improve client engagement and outcomes during neurofeedback training. Precision matters — even minor changes can enhance signal quality and session effectiveness.

At ANFI, we teach hands-on strategies and research-backed protocols so clinicians can confidently integrate neurofeedback into practice.

💡 Tip: Check sensor alignment at the start of every session — it can make all the difference!

✨ Myth vs Fact ✨

Myth: All neurofeedback systems are the same.
Fact: Protocols and clinician training matter deeply.

Neurofeedback outcomes are not determined by equipment alone. The practitioner’s understanding of brain function, protocol selection, and ability to adapt training to the individual are critical elements in effective neurofeedback practice.

This is why high-quality, clinically-informed training and ongoing professional development play such an important role in supporting ethical, evidence-based care.

What makes HRV clinically meaningful isn’t just how variable the heart is — but why it’s variable.

Stephen Porges’ work helped shift HRV from descriptive statistics to mechanistic understanding. By focusing on respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA), he linked heart rhythm directly to vagal cardioinhibitory pathways, offering a non-invasive index of autonomic regulation.

Concepts like the vagal brake reframed how clinicians think about flexibility, recovery, and physiological reserve — showing how heart rate can change rapidly through vagal withdrawal, without relying on sympathetic activation alone.
