Before founding Pathfinder Neurocounseling, Megan worked as a play therapist and consultant with children and adults on the autism spectrum. Her work took her around the U.S., Canada and England to educate families on the benefits of play therapy. During her travels, she noticed a handful of families and children who showed drastic improvements — families who were using neurofeedback. Thus, Megan’s passion for neuroscience and neurofeedback was born.
In 2012, Megan began using neurofeedback therapy in her work with adolescents struggling with symptoms of trauma. She saw firsthand the dramatic improvements that can occur when combining other therapies with the regulation of the brain through neurocounseling. She has been helping others through neurofeedback ever since. Megan is a licensed mental health counselor and is board certified and an approved BCIA mentor in neurofeedback. She holds a Master’s of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Western Carolina University. In 2018, Megan became a published author of a refereed journal article, Working with Developmental trauma: Results of neurofeedback training with adolescent females and counseling implications.
She has extensive experience facilitating national and international conferences and enjoys the collaboration with participants and practitioners from many fields. She believes these types of partnerships and encounters will propel the neurofeedback and biofeedback community forward.
Neurotherapy Modalities: I provide neurofeedback using Brainmaster Technologies as well as EEGer systems. I incorporate Heart Rate Variability (HRV) training into my sessions as well. I also use the QEEG assessment as a first order of conceptualizing and client among other neurocognitive assessments and client reporting to guide my protocols. My QEEG database is the New Mind Maps through Dr. Richard Soutar who I have been working with bi-weekly for about two years.
This was a life-changing workshop! You are both such good teachers and presenters and your willingness to try new protocols and techniques and to really work with the nuances of individuals is inspiring. I feel so excited and motivated leaving this workshop. You guys are fabulous!

I have attended several NeuroField courses both basic and advanced. Nick and Tiff are true lifelong learners and continuously seek to improve their analysis and techniques. I always come away enriched, inspired and full of ideas for exploiting this great tech.

The training I have received starting with Nick some 12-15 years ago has been the most challenging and inspiring. Both Nick and Tiff are able to take complex, puzzling and "what the heck is that" information and make it alive, understandable and useable. No small achievement. Your work continues to further our knowledge and skills.

Since it’s inception, Neurofield and now the School of Neurotherapy, has offered trainings that are salient and high caliber. Optimized infrastructure honoring the neurodiversity of how we learn is woven into the theory and skills taught. The School of Neurotherapy is at the top of my list when I want training or need to consult about a clinical impasse.

Training was comprehensive, hands on and very valuable. From basic science to advanced therapy protocols. Not only was I learning but also gaining my trust and respect for my teachers as very passionate clinicians, caring for patients and the future of the field...Let’s not forget that the Neurofield family is very welcoming, caring and FUN.
