This study will evaluate neurofeedback (NFB) training as a low risk, non-invasive, effective treatment for Veterans diagnosed with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and experiencing chronic post-concussive symptoms (PCSs). Participants will be randomized into the intervention or control group. Groups will be compared on primary measures of headache, insomnia and attention. Other outcomes of interest include post-traumatic stress symptoms, depression, quality of life and other measures of well-being.
Both the intervention and control group will participate in four assessment sessions. The assessment sessions will occur at the beginning of the study, at 4-6 weeks, at 8-10 weeks, and 2-months later. Participation in this research will last about 4 months. Those in the control group will be offered neurofeedback treatment, extending their participation time by 4 months (8 months total participation).
