presentations, speakers and community.
It will be held Feb 3-7, 2006, in
It stands out as a meeting aimed at providing practitioners
with practical information they can use to add new approaches, strategies and
techniques to their practice and helping clients, and new ideas to the
building, marketing, promoting and management of their practice.
It looks like we’ll have around 60 speakers this year.
John Demos, author of Getting Started with Neurofeedback
will be Offering a Four Day, BCIA and APA approved course that meets
requirements for getting certified in neurofeedback.
There are a number of othe pre and post conference
workshops.
BCIA will be offering the exam on the 5th.
As usual, we’ll offer an introduction to neurofeedback
one day course for newcomers to the field through people in the field for two
years. You get a wonderful overview of different approaches from many of the
leading trainers.
Check out our new speakers/presentations page at http://brainmeeting.com/maxspeakers/reports/speakers.html
to see what is up on the website so far. This represents about two thirds
of the speakers who have committed to participate and about half the
presentations. More will be added in the coming weeks, and we hope to have a
first draft of a schedule in about two weeks.
The meeting really weaves together three themes. There is
one solid track of neurofeedback. Then, on Friday and Saturday, there’s
the StoryCon track, which is a summit meeting on the art science and
application of story. We bring some of the world’s leaders in the field
of story to talk about story concepts that apply to psychologists, education,
coaching, peak performance and therapy. Some of our neurofeedback people talk
about the neuopsychology of story, narrative, myth and archetypes We’ve
had a great response to this from biofeedback practitioners.
Then we have, on Sunday and Monday, our Optimal Functioning
and Positive Psychology meeting as a second track. This includes peak
performance, optimal functioning, coaching, transpersonal psych,
meditation, eastern approaches.
Because of the implementation of a new, database driven
speaker sign-up and display of the meeting contents, we’ve had a delay in
getting the presentations and speakers listed. But they’re coming
in faster now and it’s a great time to look at what we have so far.
