Evidence based mental health treatment
Brain Mapping, or quantitative electroencephalography (qEEG), is a cutting-edge technique used at St. Mary’s Wellness Center to analyze the electrical activity in your brain. This noninvasive method helps our clinicians understand brain function patterns and tailor personalized treatment strategies.
Brain Mapping involves measuring electrical patterns at the surface of the scalp which reflect cortical activity, also known as “brainwaves.” qEEG brain mapping is used to objectively and scientifically evaluate a person’s brain function and to guide treatment options for a variety of neurological and psychiatric conditions.
At St. Mary’s Wellness Center, Brain Mapping is conducted in a comfortable setting using non-invasive sensors placed on the scalp. The process typically takes about an hour, during which you can relax as we collect data on your brain’s activity. The results are analyzed to identify any significant patterns or abnormalities that could inform your treatment plan.

Brain Mapping is used in the diagnosis and treatment planning of various conditions, including ADHD, epilepsy, depression, anxiety, and other cognitive behavioral disorders.
Results are typically ready for review within a week after the session. Your clinician will discuss the findings and any recommended treatments in a follow-up appointment.
While Brain Mapping can identify atypical brainwave patterns that may indicate a risk or presence of neurological conditions, it is not used solely to predict neurological diseases but rather as part of a comprehensive diagnostic process.
