At Boulder Center for NeuroHealth, healing happens through the integration of mindfulness, movement, and nervous system regulation.

Our NeuroHealth Process supports present-moment awareness through relational mindfulness, breathing biofeedback, meditation, and grounding techniques. We also use tools such as progressive muscle relaxation, guided imagery, and somatic movement to support emotional regulation and address dissociation that is often part of Functional Neurological Disorder.

By combining mindfulness-based cognitive therapy with somatic and expressive therapies, we take a comprehensive approach to healing. Through body-based practices such as movement, yoga, sensory processing, and breathwork, we help the nervous system regain balance, build resilience, and release stored stress and trauma.

Healing is not about forcing progress. It’s about creating the conditions the nervous system needs to adapt, learn, and change.

At Boulder Center for NeuroHealth, our work is grounded in safety, regulation, and individualized care, supporting recovery at the nervous system level.

Sensory Motor Arousal Regulation Treatment (SMART) is a movement-based therapy designed to support those who have experienced complex trauma.

SMART uses therapeutic tools such as weighted blankets, balance beams, fitness balls, and large cushions in guided, shared play. This approach supports natural self-regulation, attachment-building, and the embodied processing of traumatic experiences.

By engaging both body-based and cognitive neural pathways, SMART helps regulate arousal, expand emotional tolerance, and strengthen interpersonal connections.

SMART is recognized as an Evidence-Based Practice and meets SAMHSA guidelines for child trauma treatment. Learn more about how it is used at Boulder Center for NeuroHealth at: https://boulderneurohealth.com/neurohealth-process/

Recovery from neurological conditions is about more than muscles. It’s about how the brain and nervous system learn and adapt.

Neurorehabilitation using Virtual Reality (VR) provides a safe, engaging way to practice movement and rebuild motor control. Through guided experiences, the nervous system can explore new patterns and strengthen the connection between brain and body.

At Boulder Center for NeuroHealth, we use VR as part of a personalized, interdisciplinary approach to support functional movement, nervous system regulation, and recovery for individuals with FND and related conditions.

At Boulder Center for NeuroHealth, healing begins with a sense of safety.

We create a space where the nervous system can relax and learn new patterns:

- Secure Environment: Physical and emotional safety reduces stress and supports nervous system regulation.
- Seizure-Aware SMART Room: Explore movement and build new habits in a safe, controlled setting.
- Compassionate Communication: Active listening and nonjudgmental care foster trust and connection.

When the nervous system feels safe, healing becomes possible.

Happy New Year from Boulder Center for NeuroHealth.

As we enter a new year, we continue our commitment to providing thoughtful, evidence-informed care for individuals diagnosed with Functional Neurological Disorder. Our work remains focused on nervous system health, interdisciplinary treatment, and individualized support.

We wish you health, clarity, and peace in the year ahead.

The American Academy of Neurology has released new clinical guidelines for the diagnosis and management of functional seizures. This is an important step toward greater clarity, reduced stigma, and more effective treatment.

Highlights include:
* Clear, empathetic communication of the diagnosis
* Accurate assessment using history, witness reports, and video/EEG when available
* Avoiding unnecessary antiseizure medications
* Psychological interventions to support symptom reduction and quality of life
* Screening for co-occurring conditions

These guidelines help strengthen patient care and interdisciplinary collaboration for individuals living with functional seizures.

This guideline provides evidence-based recommendations for clinicians, patients, and other stakeholders on the management of functional seizures. Following a National Academy of Medicine–compliant process, a multidisciplinary panel conducted a systematic ...

Did you know your heart affects how you think, feel, and respond to challenges?

Heart Rate Variability (HRV) shows how flexible your nervous system is—higher HRV = greater balance and resilience. Coherence matters: irregular rhythms = less alignment; smooth, ordered rhythms = enhanced focus, emotional balance, and overall well-being.

HeartMath Institute offers tools to watch your heart rhythms in real time and strengthen coherence. At Boulder Center for NeuroHealth, we use these methods to support HRV and promote nervous system health.

A 2025 Nature study of 1.8 million HRV‑biofeedback sessions found that positive emotions increase coherence and stabilize heart rhythms—exactly what HeartMath techniques aim to do.

Decades of research show that Heart Rate Variability (HRV), or the variation in time between heartbeats, is a key biomarker of a healthy, resilient nervous system. Higher HRV correlates with:
• Reduced anxiety & depression
• Improved stress response & emotional regulation
• Better sleep, pain management, and overall well-being

At Boulder Center for NeuroHealth, we integrate HRV biofeedback through the Wild Divine platform. This evidence-based tool allows clients to train their nervous system in real time, supporting recovery, resilience, and optimal functioning, especially for those with Functional Neurological Disorder .

By combining cutting-edge research with hands-on practice, we help clients see measurable improvements in both body and mind.

Somatic Psychotherapy is a body-centered therapy that explores the connection between mind and body. It can be especially helpful for people living with Functional Neurological Disorder (FND).

Somatic therapy is a bottom-up approach, working with the body to create lasting changes in the brain and nervous system. At Boulder Center for NeuroHealth, Dr. Moenter combines a polyvagal-informed approach with Sensorimotor Psychotherapy to help clients feel more regulated and connected to their bodies.

Rather than trying to force symptoms to stop, this therapy addresses underlying patterns in the nervous system, helping people with FND feel safer, stronger, and more in control of daily life.

At Boulder Center for NeuroHealth, recovery from isn’t just about the brain. It’s about reconnecting your whole body.

In Dr. Moenter’s mindful movement room, clients:
* Explore new movements, like getting in and out of a wheelchair independently
* Use ballet bars, yoga balls, and swinging chairs for sensory-rich play
* Build motor control, body awareness, and nervous system resilience

With 45+ years of experience in dance, yoga, and creative movement, Dr. Moenter turns curiosity into progress—one mindful movement at a time.
