Lisa Pinkstaff LPC, LLC

"I went to see Lisa on the recommendation of my therapist to check out what neuro-feedback was all about, to see if would assist in my mental health journey and healing as a retired and disabled Veteran. To be honest I was skeptical at first, but I was in mental health care for many years, on Active Duty and after I retired from service and felt I had reached a bit of a plateau in my progress. I figured what was the worst case scenario if I tried? Nothing. As I worked with Lisa there was a lot of paperwork, at the beginning, but now I know that was useful in the sense of her figuring out what was going to help me to accomplish my goals of healing as a Veteran with PTSD and other traumas. I had to be very honest in the questionnaire to get the full effect of the neuro-feedback program. You get out of it what you put into it. If you take it seriously and make your sessions I can guarantee you will see the progress. As I reflect back on my journey, I always recommend individuals, especially military and Veterans, to seek mental health care to help with any traumas or struggles from your past or from the rigors of military life and/or war. I highly recommend neuro-feedback in conjunction with therapy or if you feel therapy has reached a plateau as it did for me; to help fill in those missing pieces that I didn't know how to verbalize in therapy, or those things hidden in my recesses of my mind. It was working on those situations in a kind of "behind the scenes" therapy even after I left her office. I do not believe I would be where I am now as a retired, disabled Veteran, in my growth and healing without the assistance of neuro-feedback in conjunction with mental health therapy. I do not believe I would be able to get back to a more normal life without the support and guidance of Lisa and neuro-feedback."

"Both of my sons went to see Lisa. They were amazed at the results for helping with anxiety and ADHD. Both boys appreciated her warmth as a therapist and enjoyed their work with her."

"After finding out my physical ailments were caused by my long time stress related mental ailments, I was trying everything from counseling to vitamin injections to stress relief therapies with nothing helping. I'm so happy I was referred to Lisa by a counselor. She helped me to completely quit my anti-stress medications and after my first session it taught me how bad I really was. She was a lifesaver for me. Also I really enjoyed my visits with her watching Netflix shows and improving my brain and mental health. I never would have believed I could feel this good again. I am more focused now and it has also helped my A.D.D. I am forever grateful!"

"I have tried a handful of therapists and methods, but my time with Lisa was unlike others. She was very caring and walked me through everything so I could understand what was going on and why. She was understanding and able to help me through each issue I brought to her. What is most unique is that I could watch my brain in action and not only see, but feel the results immediately. Learning how to use my breath to take care of myself in real-time has been a life long lesson and technique I will never forget and still use all the time. She works with a multitude of issues, so if you’re skeptical-give it a try and you will see results happen right before your eyes. Plus watching Netflix to get my brain straightened out wasn’t so bad either (you’ll have to go to see for yourself)."

"I didn't know anything about, or had even heard of Neurofeedback... After Lisa explained what it actually does I was less nervous to try it. And thank goodness I did. I've slept a full night's sleep and have increased focus/motivation in my profession. It's comparable in pricing for talk therapy or even "tutoring", the difference though: this sticks!! The other solutions have mostly been bandaids or simply temporary because it's just not deep enough to change how your brain actually functions. So glad we have this available in San Antonio."
