Worried about your child’s focus, behavior, or learning? Let’s figure out what’s actually going on.

A free 20-minute consultation with a board-certified clinician. No pitch, no pressure, no obligation — just a real conversation about your child.

Or call (310) 821-3640. We answer Mon–Fri, 9–5 PT.

If you’re here, something’s probably been off for a while.

Maybe the school keeps calling. Maybe homework takes three hours when it should take 30 minutes. Maybe the meltdowns after school have gotten worse, not better. Maybe a doctor said “ADHD” or “anxiety” or “sensory” — or said the opposite, that nothing is wrong — and you’re still not sure what to actually do.

You’ve probably already tried things. Tutoring. Therapy. A reward chart. A new diet. Maybe a medication trial that helped some, or didn’t, or did but came with side effects you weren’t okay with. You’re tired of guessing. You want to know what’s actually happening in your child’s brain so you can make decisions based on something other than a hunch.

That’s what this consultation is for.

What this call is

A 20-minute video or phone conversation with Erin Badour, a licensed Speech-Language Pathologist and Board-Certified Neurofeedback clinician (BCN).
A chance to describe what’s going on with your child in your own words — the symptoms, the history, what’s been tried, what hasn’t.
Honest input on whether brain-based assessment and training is likely to help, or whether something else makes more sense for your situation.
If we’re not the right fit, you’ll leave with a sense of who else might be — we have a referral network of specialists we’ve worked with for over a decade.

What this call is not

Not a sales pitch. We will not pressure you to book an assessment on the call.
Not a diagnosis. We don’t diagnose on consultation calls — that takes a real assessment, which we’ll only recommend if it makes sense for your child.
Not a substitute for talking to your child’s pediatrician, psychologist, or school team. We work alongside them, not instead of them.
Not a commitment to anything. No card on file, no signup, no follow-up calls unless you want them.

Who you’ll be talking to

Erin Badour is the founder and Executive Director of Neurozone. She’s a Licensed Speech-Language Pathologist (CCC-SLP) and one of the small number of clinicians nationally who hold a Board Certification in Neurofeedback (BCN) from BCIA. She’s spent her career working with kids whose brains aren’t doing what they’re supposed to be doing — in focus, in regulation, in learning, in language.

She’s also a mom. She knows what it feels like to be the parent on the other side of this call.

What things cost, if you’re wondering

This page is about a free consultation, not a paid program — but we know you’re probably already wondering. So:

Initial Neurocognitive Assessment (QEEG brain mapping + clinical interpretation + parent strategy session): $1,500.
Neurofeedback training programs: approximately $3,000–$4,000 depending on whether your child trains in-clinic, remotely from home, or hybrid.
Insurance: we’re a private-pay practice. Some families use HSA/FSA funds or pursue out-of-network reimbursement — we’ll talk about whether that’s realistic for your plan on the consultation call.

If this pricing isn’t workable for your family, the consultation call is still useful. We’ll point you to lower-cost options that may help.

Common questions parents ask

Is my child too young / too old for this?

We work primarily with children ages 6 through 17. We also see some younger and older clients case-by-case — if you’re unsure, the consultation is the right place to ask.

Do you work with kids who have already been diagnosed with [ADHD / autism / anxiety / learning disability]?

Yes. Many of the children we work with already have one or more diagnoses. We’re not here to re-diagnose — we’re here to look at the brain systems underneath the diagnosis and see what’s contributing to your child’s specific patterns.

Do you work with kids who have NOT been formally diagnosed?

Yes. Some parents come to us because something feels off and they don’t want to wait for a diagnosis to start understanding what’s happening. Others come because the diagnostic process hasn’t given them clear answers. Both are appropriate reasons to call.

Can we do this remotely if we’re not in Los Angeles?

The consultation call itself is always remote. For ongoing programs, we offer a remote neurofeedback option that allows children to train at home with clinician oversight — we’ll talk through whether that’s a fit for your family on the call.

Are you a doctor? Will you replace my child’s pediatrician or psychiatrist?

Erin is a licensed clinician, not a physician. We don’t prescribe or manage medication, and we don’t replace medical or psychiatric care — we work alongside it. If your child is on medication, we coordinate with their prescribing provider.

Is neurofeedback going to cure my child?

No reputable clinician will tell you they can cure ADHD, autism, anxiety, or any developmental condition with neurofeedback. What the research and our clinical experience show is that brain training can meaningfully improve regulation, focus, and learning capacity in many children — not all, and not equally. We’ll be honest with you on the call about what’s realistic for your child.
