Six months after the deadline, the relationship, the diagnosis — the autonomic system can still be running on emergency settings. We examine and work the levers that bring the brain back into a regulated steady-state.
The acute stressor has passed. Life looks workable on paper. And yet — sleep is fragmented, the mind won't settle in the evening, attention isn't reliable, the body is tired but wired. The autonomic system, which was doing exactly what it was supposed to do under sustained load, hasn't recalibrated.
In our practice, this presentation is one of the highest-yield uses of HRV biofeedback. Patients are usually trainable. Home practice carries low risk. Most see autonomic shifts within the first six to ten sessions.
For most stress-and-burnout presentations, we lead with HRV biofeedback and supportive sleep work. The qEEG often shows the cortical signature of chronic over-arousal — useful for tracking, sometimes for targeted neurofeedback. Mind-body integration work pairs naturally to anchor the home practice.
Where the picture suggests a primary depressive or anxiety disorder underneath the burnout label — particularly with persistent low mood, hopelessness, or panic — we refer for psychological assessment and work alongside that care.
We work alongside — not in place of — primary medical and psychological care. We do not diagnose neurological or psychiatric conditions from EEG, and we do not prescribe or alter medication. If you or someone you know is in crisis, call 000 or Lifeline 13 11 14.
The same methodology, every tier
14 brain networks. Quantitative measurement at the start, the middle, and the end. Co-care with your GP and psychologist — we work alongside, not instead of.
19-channel quantitative EEG, processed against age-matched norms via NeuroGuide. swLORETA source localisation maps activity to specific networks.
swLORETA-guided neurofeedback paired with HRV biofeedback at resonant frequency. Network-targeted protocols, not one-size-fits-all.
qEEG comparison at mid-cycle and end of program. If the data isn’t moving in the expected direction, we change the plan — not the calendar.
One methodology across every tier — from the free Snapshot through to the in-clinic 12-week program.
Four tiers of care
Every tier uses the same methodology — examination first, then targeted intervention. Choose the depth that fits your concern, your timeline, and your budget.
A short educational self-questionnaire across the 14 networks. Your top three out of balance, plus a clear next step.
Full 14-network online assessment, severity grading, personalised 30-day plan, and clinician-reviewed insights.
Continuing telehealth support, monthly reassessment, evolving plan, daily insight cards, before/after reports.
Initial qEEG, ~10 swLORETA-guided neurofeedback sessions with integrated HRV biofeedback, mid-cycle re-measurement, follow-up qEEG.
All tiers complement, not replace, your GP, psychologist, or psychiatrist. We co-care.
Two ways to begin
Examination, not assumption.
Take the free Brain Snapshot to orient yourself, or book a consultation with Dr Ash Connell. Both are easy to step away from, and either way you’ll leave with a clearer picture of what’s actually going on.
