About

Tiff Thompson Ph.D., QEEGD, R.EEG T, BCN, LMFT is a clinical neuroscientist, licensed therapist, educator, and technologist. She is the founder and owner of the Santa Barbara clinic, NeuroField Neurotherapy, where she offers quantitative electroencephalography (QEEG)-based functional brain consulting to clinicians. She has worked in neurology clinics, as well as clinical settings, and has taught in kindergarten to university settings. Tiff has served as the Executive Director of the Western Association of Biofeedback and Neuroscience. She holds two master’s degrees, one in Depth Counseling Psychology and another in Rhetoric. She has a PhD in Psychology; her dissertation was on the intersection of psychodynamic psychology model of the psyche and electroencephalography (EEG).She is board certified in neurotherapy and a licensed diplomate of quantitative EEG.

She teaches neuromodulation and neurofeedback courses nationally and internationally for NeuroField, Inc. with her husband, Nicholas Dogris. She also organizes and hosts a yearly conference in Santa Barbara for neurotherapy practitioners. She is the creator of an online educational platform: The School of Neurotherapy, which runs three separate curricula: Quantitative EEG Didactic training, Board Certification in Neurotherapy Didactic training, and Neuromodulation education. Tiff regularly delivers public lectures on all things concerning neurodiagnostics and the clinical application of neurostimulation.

 The Eight Profiles of ADHD: EEG-Based Subtyping and Targeted Neurotherapy for Improved Clinical Outcomes

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is far from a singular condition—it manifests through distinct electrophysiological patterns that reveal the underlying neurophysiology of each case. In this keynote, Dr. Tiff Thompson introduces clinicians to the eight EEG profiles of ADHD, including patterns such as frontal beta spindles, excessive theta, high theta/beta ratio, slowed alpha, and complex mixed types. Drawing on the latest findings in quantitative EEG (QEEG) and event-related potential (ERP) research, Dr. Thompson demonstrates how EEG-based profiling enables a more precise understanding of attentional and executive function networks.

The presentation will explore evidence-based neuromodulation and neurofeedback interventions tailored to these profiles—methods that extend beyond symptom management to address core neural dysregulation. Attendees will gain practical tools to integrate EEG analysis into their clinical assessments and learn how individualized neurotherapy protocols can significantly enhance treatment outcomes for clients with ADHD.

Learning Objectives:

  1. Identify and differentiate the eight primary EEG profiles associated with ADHD presentations.
  2. Understand how EEG phenotyping informs personalized neurotherapy and neuromodulation approaches.
  3. Apply neurofeedback and stimulation strategies that improve attention, inhibition, and executive function.
