Brain Balance of Greater Baltimore

My experience with LENS therapy at Neurobalance has been nothing short of life-changing. For most of my life I’ve dealt with a lot: trauma, ADHD, a high level of social anxiety, PTSD symptoms, and low self-esteem. I’ve tried a lot of things to make life feel even a little easier, including stimulant meds and SSRIs, and nothing truly moved the needle for me in a consistent way. My wife found LENS therapy on TikTok and then went deep into research trying to find the best provider. One thing became really clear: Neurobalance was head and shoulders above the rest. Jon was personally trained by the inventor of LENS therapy, and I looked at it like a game of telephone. If you’re going to trust anyone with your brain, you want the person who learned directly from the creator. Jon is genuinely kind and easy to talk to. He listens, asks thoughtful questions, and never judges. He’s also extremely reachable in between appointments, which made me feel supported instead of “on my own” between sessions. One of my favorite things about Jon is that he feels like a friend, but still stays professional. He never pushes me past what I’m comfortable with, and we always move at a pace that feels right. So far I’ve done 4 sessions within about 2 weeks, and both my wife and I have noticed real changes. I’ve never been on time to anything consistently, and now I’m actually showing up on time more often. I used to procrastinate badly and struggle with motivation, and now I’m more proactive. I feel more engaged with life and with the people I love. I used to overthink every decision because of anxiety, and now my mind feels calmer and quieter. Sleep has also changed dramatically. I used to have intense nightmares almost every night, sometimes to the point of waking up in a panic, and now I’m not dealing with that anymore. Overall, my ADHD symptoms feel reduced, my social anxiety is significantly lower, and I feel more confident in day-to-day life. If you resonate with any of what I’ve shared, rest easy knowing you’re in great hands here. I’m genuinely grateful for what LENS has done for me so far, and I’m looking forward to continuing treatment with Jon.

I can’t recommend John highly enough for anyone considering neurofeedback. When I first visited his facility, I knew very little about the process. John took the time to explain everything in detail, making it easy to understand. I came to John because I was struggling with neuroplastic pain—my body was constantly achy, my joints were sore, and I was dealing with tingling, anxiety, and depression. On top of that, I had been diagnosed with a mast cell disorder that brought its own set of symptoms. Working with John and going through about 15 neurofeedback sessions was a game changer. It allowed my brain to reset and move away from that negative loop of feeling stuck and unwell. Within just a couple of sessions, I noticed a big difference, and by the end of my treatment plan, I felt significantly better. I also combined neurofeedback with good therapy and somatic tracking, which I’d recommend to anyone in a similar situation. Thanks to John’s expertise, I’m now in a much better place. If you’re on the fence about neurofeedback, I wholeheartedly recommend giving it a try here.

My son had been in multiple therapy programs for several years prior to joining brain balance. He was making progress with some skills but I felt that he needed a more holistic program that took into account everything that was going on with him. He had several developmental delays, behavioral issues, a learning disability, and an eye disorder (strabismus) and I felt that it was all very much intertwined. Brain balance was the first program I found that was really built to address all of the issues comprehensively instead of individually. The sessions follow a dedicated methodology so you can really see the improvement in skills and gain an understanding of what areas need the most focus. The therapists are also absolutely incredible. They try to make the sessions fun but at the same time set boundaries and celebrate small wins which has really helped my child to build resilience. They aren’t afraid to start early, or run late, if my child needs it and are extremely accommodating to our schedule. We’ve experienced some therapy programs where we felt like we were just a paycheck to them and this feels completely different. The owners and all of the therapists really go above and beyond in every way and our son is making so much progress because of it. Highly recommend! It’s very worth the financial investment.

We enrolled my grandson at Brain Balance. He is on the Autism Spectrum and had many sensory issues that impacted his daily activities. He improved so much after just three months at Brain Balance. He now experiences with ease various sensory stimuli that he was unable to tolerate in the past. Also, his posture and language skills have improved. We wish we had know about this program earlier. We are so grateful for Brain Balance!

So happy we took a chance on Brain Balance. The team treated my neurodivergent child as an individual. They consistently exhibited optimism and verbal support/updates to the changes that the program supported in my child. The team provided individualized care, understanding and patience not only for my son but also our family as a whole. Since starting the program he walks taller, has increased eye contact when being addressed and increased incidence of trying new things (foods), as well as more comfortable with changes in schedules and plans. We are thankful to Brain Balance and look forward to the continued growth as our child enters young adulthood.

Brain Balance in Columbia is by far one of the best programs that I could’ve done for my son. My son is on the spectrum and really struggled with social interaction and communication,comprehension etc. Since coming here to Brain Balance, My son has 0 meltdowns and has been more attentive and more vocal. Thank you so much for believing and having a real passion for these children!! We are so grateful to have found Beth and Chris and the whole Brain Balance team!!!😭🙏🏽❤️
