Background
This case follows a woman in her late 20s who had recently travelled from Europe. She was living away from her family and found herself feeling very homesick. Being in a new environment brought a sense of distance and emotional strain. At the same time, she was completing studies and managing a house move. These combined stressors made it difficult to stay calm and focused. She was looking for something that could support her through this period and help her feel more settled. She chose to use a NeurOptimal® system for 8 weeks and committed to consistent sessions throughout that time.
