Dr. Isaacs has retired from his Neurofeedback practice
Since retiring from his Neurofeedback practice in 2021, Dr. Isaacs has been following the non-dual teachings of Rupert Spira. For over a decade prior to that, he was practicing Tranquil Wisdom Insight Meditation, as taught by Bhante Vimalaramsi and Doug Kraft.
He was a neurofeedback practitioner from 1994-2021 and provided brainwave biofeedback (neurofeedback) and diagnostic quantitative EEG (“QEEG”) “Brain Mapping” to a wide range of adults and children suffering from a broad spectrum of neurological and psychiatric disorders. He was one of the Bay Area’s most experienced practitioners, having conducted in excess of 300 QEEG brain-maps since 1998 and having provided neurofeedback treatment for several hundred children and adults.
Dr. Isaacs earned a Ph.D. in psychology from a British university in 1984 and relocated in the same year to become a faculty member of a Bay Area graduate school. After some years teaching and performing research, during which he took training as a biofeedback therapist, he took specialized training in neuro-feedback with EEG Spectrum and in 1994 entered practice as clinical director of their Bay Area neurofeedback facility.
In 1997 he founded Marin Biofeedback Associates in San Rafael, which provided QEEG, neurofeedback treatment and intern training. He has instructed and supervised healthcare professionals in neurofeedback theory and practice since 1995. Since 2000 he has instructed healthcare professionals in QEEG technique.
He is well regarded and published in his field. He has made many presentations to neurofeedback conferences and other groups. He has mentored Ph.D. candidates in this area. In 1999 he supervised the Focus Project, a four phase controlled scientific investigation of the use of neurofeedback to remediate ADHD in children attending three public elementary schools in Marin County.
In 2002 Dr. Isaacs was trained in EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), a highly effective emotional release technique, and he successfully provided this service to many clients.
