For the past 30 years Buck McDavid has been mentoring individuals in personal crisis, even with only a physics degree.  Eventually, Buck returned to school and obtained his master’s in counseling psychology to qualify his skills. After completing his internship, Buck decided to forgo becoming a licensed psychotherapist and identified with being a Life Coach. As such, McDavid combines his academic, listening, intuitive, and personal/professional life skills to assist people. Buck’s approach is to walk alongside his clients as new solutions to lifelong issues are found and old wounds become healed.

All of us have physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual issues that prevent us from becoming all we can be.  Some issues we are born with, while others are conferred by life’s circumstances and traumas. As a result, fear, guilt, and shame guide our slippery slope of “quiet desperation” in defining who and what we become. Many of us walk with “mental/emotional pebbles” in our shoes, making for an uncomfortable and sometimes desperate life journey. As you know, there is a direct correlation between our issues and the success of our personal and professional relationships. Due to our childhood and adult dramas, all of us have splits between our brain and heart. Buck helps individuals reconnect their brain and heart, bringing that connection closer together. This enhances individuals to become more wholesome, grounded, focused, and centered.

After the lifting of the California 3-month stay-at-home order during the COVID-19 outbreak, life can hit hard. Our brain isn’t always able to respond quickly. Instead, our brain will repeat the same pattern and story, which may lead to behavior and cognitive problems, such as: excessive worrying; anxious thoughts; inability to flexibly move through thoughts or daily tasks; disruptions of sleep/mood patterns; erosion of relationships; and deterioration of cognitive or physical performance.

The NeurOptimal® Dynamical Neurofeedback® Brain Training System is one of the primary tools that McDavid uses to help his clients to effectively manage their issues. Neurofeedback has been effectively used for over 40 years to optimize the brain, which controls emotions and behaviors. Neurofeedback is considered a gentle, painless, and non-invasive method of restoring effective balance with the central nervous system. NeurOptimal® simply monitors the brain’s electrical output and mirrors it back to your brain in a way that allows your central nervous system to make corrections to optimize itself. The sensors are placed on your head and the audio/visual feedback is provided by music played during the brain training session through minor breaks and pauses throughout the soundtrack. Nothing is put into your brain (no electricity, no strong frequency, vibration, or light/sound).

The U.S. Food & Drug Administration has determined that NeurOptimal® is a General Wellness Device and is safe to use as a healthy lifestyle choice and is safe for all ages of children, adults, and seniors. NeurOptimal® is time tested since 1996… effective with over 4 million sessions, and presently with over 50,000 sessions provided monthly worldwide.

In conclusion, your brain is the expert in NeurOptimal® training and every training is an individual experience. Your internal responses are always diverse and dependent upon your ability to subconsciously observe and process this information. Does not matter if you are phenomenally successful, on your way, or getting started; NeurOptimal® Brain Training will meet your needs… an optimized brain may lead you to improved feelings, thoughts, and behaviors.
