About Neural Network Therapy®
What is Neural Network Therapy®?
Neural Network Therapy® is a therapeutic approach designed to reprogram the brain for optimal mental health. Developed based on neuroscience data surrounding the neuroplasticity of the brain (the brain’s ability to rewire old patterns and learn new habits), Neural Network Therapy® is an education-based approach that empowers clients to transform their mental health through adaptive skills and strategies.
Blending counselling principles with uniquely designed educational exercises, Neural Network Therapy® provides a practical, holistic approach with the goal to boost mood, reduce anxiety, break unwanted habits and develop strong, healthy relationships. Unlike traditional talk therapy, which can be ongoing for years, Neural Network Therapy® aims to provide a shorter-term, longer-lasting solution that equips clients with the knowledge and tools they need to achieve positive mental health and well-being over the lifespan.

Benefits of Neural Nework Therapy®
Traditional psychotherapy often ranges from 3-5 years to be considered effective; In contrast, Neural Network Therapy® possesses long-term sustainability with a short-term counselling timeframe of 4-6 months.
As compared with traditional therapy, Neural Network Therapy® provides a more holistic, engaging, and playful approach that uses psychoeducation to treat the client. Rather than focusing on dysfunctional thoughts, Neural Network Therapy® works to improve all aspects of a client’s lifestyle, with 76% of clients reporting lasting changes.
A 2022 Trent University study demonstrated that 88% of clients improved markedly on measures of health and wellness, life balance and relationships following Neural Network Therapy®.
In a recent study, psychological distress post-therapy for Neural Network Therapy® clients was less than that of CBT clients, suggesting that Neural Network Therapy® may possess a greater ability to lessen client problems while optimising client well-being.
Over 10,000 clients have experienced the benefits of Neural Network Therapy®
Sessions are $155 each and can be as few or as many as needed. This approach is client-centered.
With an average duration of 3 years, traditional talk therapy can cost clients upwards of $20,000. In contrast, 6-months in weekly Neural Network Therapy® sessions has an accessible cost of approximately $4,000, and can provide lasting, lifelong benefits.
“Neural Network Therapy® focuses on neuroplasticity, or changing the brain, to modify patterns of brain activity that lead to negative experiences. NNT helps clients understand their brain function while developing mindfulness and behavioural skills, which helps them rewire brain patterns that lead to negative thoughts, emotions and behaviours.”
