Amy McAllister, ICT

Amy sought out IASIS Microcurrent Neurofeedback to treat her sons with learning challenges—specifically anxiety and ADHD. As a certified Executive Function coach (and fellow ADHDer), Amy saw this technology as a key component to success in increasing brain function and emotional resiliency.

To Amy, this modality is a natural complement to her skill sets and a seamless opportunity to take her love of helping struggling students and adults. She believes that regardless of your current place on the spectrum of mental, emotional, spiritual, and bodily well-being, IASIS can help move the needle toward a more whole overall functioning for all people.

A homeschool mom and natural educator, Amy taught private school in Austin, TX for five years spanning grades K-12. Amy is invested in people and their stories—no matter how messy. She loves watching people feel relieved and empowered through their IASIS treatment sessions.

The funniest person she’s ever met is her husband, Cort (who loves IASIS to help him sleep), and they laugh all the time. They have three sons who are always hungry and asking for a ride. They love IASIS because they feel calm afterward.

A boy mom through and through, Amy McAllister is happiest when adventuring with her family—exploring nearby hikes, or finding last-minute cheap flights to somewhere new. 

Amy is licensed under Lawrence Slusser PA-C, an IASIS Certified Provider. Lawrence is also Amy’s father. Awww, so cute!

FAQs

  • Good question. IASIS is a safe and effective neurofeedback technology that uses low energy impulses (microcurrents) to help our brains “reboot” by creating new brain wave patterns. Many factors such as stress, environment, trauma, injury or sickness can cause our brains to become unbalanced and frozen in unhealthy brain wave patterns resulting in brain-related disorders such as ADHD, anxiety, depression, and PTSD. These micro-currents of energy are the real MVP when it comes to correcting and restoring our brain function!

  • IASIS Microcurrent Neurofeedback is a newer, more effective evolution of neurofeedback. Traditional neurofeedback requires you to wear a cap with lots of leads and watch a specific program on a screen to retrain your brain. IASIS Microcurrent Neurofeedback is passive, which means you don’t have to watch anything, and the results are quicker, and therefore cheaper. Most clients find lasting improvement within 20 sessions, whereas traditional neurofeedback requires 30-40 sessions for long term benefit.

  • Absolutely. IASIS MCN is an FDA registered EEG amplifier and is extremely safe. The amount of electrical current used during treatment is 1/100th of a AA battery over 1/100th of a second which is generally unnoticeable to the person being treated.

  • Yes! And new studies are being published all the time. Here are research papers supporting IASIS being used for PTSD, Anxiety and Depression, and Traumatic Brain Injury.

  • 10-20 sessions is ideal to reach enduring sustainability of improved symptoms. Most clients begin to see improvement in symptoms within the first 3-5 sessions.

  • Anyone! Adults and children, alike!

  • The better question is, what doesn’t it treat? IASIS has been shown to reduce or eliminate symptoms of many disorders including (but not limited to) anxiety, depression, addiction, ADD/ADHD, autism, OCD, PTSD, traumatic brain injury, concussion, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, chronic pain, insomnia and migraines.

  • Very rarely does anyone experience side effects, but you may experience a mild headache, nausea, lightheadedness, or the feeling of being “revved up” only lasting a few hours after the treatment. This does not indicate that the treatment is not working, but rather that your brain is attempting to reorganize itself. The good news is, these symptoms are always temporary.

  • Your first session will take about 90 minutes, as we do a comprehensive health intake and discuss your specific treatment plan. All sessions after that will be completed in about 45 minutes.

  • Whatever you’re comfortable in! Some people come straight from work, and others come in their cozy clothes. We put leads on different parts of your neck and shoulders, so you’ll want to wear something that makes those easily accessible.

  • Yes! I can bring MCN to you! If you have 3 or more family members receiving MCN and you’re within a 30-minute drive from my home, I will come to you for a $25 travel fee per session.

  • Each session costs $125 with discounts given for buying bundles of multiple sessions at one time.

    We understand this pricing is not in reach for some families. For anyone who would benefit from financial aid, we encourage you to apply for a scholarship. We understand family finances are complex. Be open and honest in your responses. A real-life caring, compassionate, and rational person is on the other end of your scholarship form.

Testimonials

  • “Neurofeedback was instrumental in changing my sleep patterns, something I’d been trying to do on my own for years. I noticed a change right away, and my sleep has gotten better with each session. I’m more productive and feel ready to take on daily challenges."

    —Penny

  • Our daughter (dyslexic, ADHD, poor impulse control, easily emotionally overwhelmed) loved the neurofeedback sessions with Amy! After a few sessions we noticed that our daughter seemed happier after school and in the evenings. Almost immediately she started sleeping better. Near the end of our neurofeedback sessions I realized that we hadn't had any crying at the dinner table for weeks! The biggest improvement we saw from the neurofeedback was better emotional control. Our daughter is happier. It feels like such a miracle! She is better rested, happier, more calm, and so much better able to manage her emotions. She gets along better with her siblings. She does better with reading practice in the evenings and has more patience with schoolwork. Her brain is working better! I would recommend neurofeedback to anyone.

    —Emily

  • The focus I have on the days following neurofeedback are undeniable. Perimenupause brought so much brain fog and "squirrels". I feel like I have my old brain back.

    —Summer

  • I was in an incredibly stressful season at work and was anxious all the time. The nights after neurofeedback were the best sleep of my life! The following day I just felt "chill" all day.
