The Long and Winding Road my systematic review journey so far (Or, how I befriended RAI, my AI Research Assistant)

Abstract

My interest in neurofeedback began in June 2023 after psychologists within Darling Downs Health Mental Health, Alcohol and Other Drugs Services (MHAODS) reported highly promising preliminary outcomes from a neurofeedback project involving treatment-resistant post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). As a clinical psychologist working in community mental health, I was immediately intrigued. I could see the potential for neurofeedback to become a valuable adjunctive intervention, particularly for children and young people who, for various developmental, cognitive, or psychological reasons, struggle to engage fully in traditional talk-based therapies.
