LENS Neurofeedback in Columbus, GA

What if healing could start at the level of the brain itself — not just through conversation, but by directly supporting your nervous system's ability to regulate, reset, and function at its best?

That's what LENS Neurofeedback does. And ADAPT Network is one of the only Ochs Labs-certified LENS practices in the Columbus, GA region — meaning you're getting this treatment from clinicians trained directly by the people who developed it.

What Is LENS Neurofeedback?

LENS stands for Low Energy Neurofeedback System. It is a non-invasive, drug-free therapy that uses extremely subtle electromagnetic signals to help the brain recognize and shift its own patterns — essentially giving your nervous system permission to "reboot" toward healthier, more flexible functioning.

Unlike traditional talk therapy, LENS works directly with your brain's electrical activity. Small sensors are placed on the scalp to measure brainwave patterns. The system then delivers a feedback signal so low in energy that most people feel nothing at all. That gentle signal is enough to interrupt stuck patterns and allow the brain to begin self-regulating more effectively on its own.

Sessions are short — typically 30 minutes — require no effort from you, and often produce noticeable results within just a few sessions. Most clients complete their course of treatment in approximately 9 to 11 sessions total — significantly fewer than other neurofeedback approaches.

Who Provides LENS at ADAPT Network?

ADAPT Network has two Ochs Labs-certified LENS providers — a distinction that sets our practice apart from most clinics offering neurofeedback in the Columbus area:

  • Christy Hubbard, MS, NCC, LPC — Licensed Professional Counselor, Founder of ADAPT Network, and Ochs Labs-certified LENS provider. Christy offers LENS as a standalone service and integrated alongside other clinical services at ADAPT Network.
  • Katie Krieg, LCSW — Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Ochs Labs-certified LENS provider. Katie specializes exclusively in LENS Neurofeedback, bringing focused clinical expertise and dedicated availability for LENS clients of all ages.

Together, Christy and Katie bring a combined depth of LENS expertise that is rare in any private practice setting. Having two dedicated, Ochs Labs-certified providers means more scheduling flexibility, consistent availability, and a higher standard of specialized care for every LENS client.

Who Can Benefit from LENS?

LENS Neurofeedback can help children, teens, and adults experiencing a wide range of neurological and mental health challenges, including:

Mental Health

  • Anxiety and panic
  • Depression
  • PTSD and trauma
  • OCD
  • Mood dysregulation and emotional reactivity
  • Grief and life transitions
  • Postpartum mood and anxiety disorders

Neurological & Cognitive

  • ADHD and attention difficulties
  • Learning disabilities and academic struggles

Research shows that more than 85% of LENS clients experience meaningful improvement in at least one area — and those results are typically long-lasting. We cannot guarantee outcomes for any specific symptom, but we can tell you that most people notice something shifting within the first few sessions.

What Makes ADAPT Network's Approach Different?

Ochs Labs Certification — The Gold Standard in LENS

Not all neurofeedback is the same, and not all LENS providers are trained equally. Ochs Labs is the original developer of the LENS system. Both of our LENS clinicians hold Ochs Labs certification — which means our protocols, assessment tools, and clinical decision-making are grounded in the research and training of the people who created this technology.

When you come to ADAPT Network for LENS, you're not getting a generic neurofeedback experience. You're getting LENS done the right way, by providers who have invested deeply in this specialty.

Integrated Nervous System Care

At ADAPT Network, LENS doesn't exist in isolation. Our team includes licensed therapists trained in EMDR, Gottman Method couples therapy, perinatal mental health, sport performance counseling, and more. This means we can offer something genuinely rare: integrated care that addresses both the mind and the brain at the same time.

For many clients, combining LENS with therapy accelerates progress in ways that neither approach achieves alone. A trauma client in EMDR may find that LENS helps their nervous system settle and integrate between sessions. A child with ADHD receiving LENS may become more receptive to coaching and behavioral skills work. A postpartum mother managing anxiety may find that LENS reduces the baseline nervous system activation that makes everything harder.

We'll always work with you to determine whether LENS alone, therapy alone, or an integrated approach is the right clinical fit.

A Whole-Nervous-System Perspective

ADAPT Network takes a nervous system-first approach to mental health care. For clients interested in a comprehensive approach to brain and nervous system health, we can discuss how LENS may complement other evidence-informed tools including Heart Rate Variability (HRV) biofeedback and photobiomodulation therapy (near-infrared light therapy) — creating a layered foundation for regulation, resilience, and recovery.

What to Expect

Step 1: Initial LENS Consultation (50 minutes, $175)

Your first appointment is a clinical intake and assessment. We'll review your history, your goals, and your nervous system's current patterns using validated assessment tools. You'll learn exactly what LENS is, what to expect, and whether it's the right fit for you. Many clients receive their first LENS signal during this session.

Step 2: LENS Sessions (30 minutes, $110)

Ongoing LENS sessions are brief and require nothing from you except to sit comfortably. Sensors are placed on your scalp, your brainwave activity is measured, and a gentle feedback signal is delivered. Sessions are quiet and often feel relaxing. You may notice subtle changes — in sleep, mood, focus, or reactivity — in the days following your sessions.

Step 3: Ongoing Assessment and Adjustment

Your LENS provider will monitor your response between sessions and adjust the protocol as needed. LENS is not one-size-fits-all — the system maps to your brain's unique patterns and the treatment evolves with you. Most clients complete a full course in 9–11 sessions, though some continue beyond that depending on their goals.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is LENS different from other neurofeedback?

Traditional neurofeedback typically requires the client to actively respond to visual or auditory cues over many sessions — sometimes 40 or more. LENS is passive (no effort required), uses signals far lower in energy, and typically achieves results in 9–11 sessions. The LENS protocol is also mapped to each client's unique brainwave patterns rather than applied generically.

Is LENS safe?

Yes. LENS uses electromagnetic signals far below the threshold of anything that could cause harm. The most common response is mild fatigue or vivid dreams after early sessions, which typically resolves as treatment progresses. Our providers are trained to start conservatively and adjust based on your individual response.

How many sessions will I need?

Most clients complete a course of LENS in 9–11 sessions. Some clients with more complex histories or specific goals may benefit from additional sessions. We'll give you an honest clinical picture after your intake and reassess with you as we go.

Can LENS be done alongside therapy?

Yes — and for many clients, combining LENS with therapy produces the best results. Our team is uniquely positioned to offer integrated care because our therapists and LENS providers work together in the same practice.

Do you offer LENS for children?

Yes. LENS is well-suited for children and adolescents, particularly those experiencing ADHD, anxiety, learning difficulties, behavioral dysregulation, or post-concussion symptoms. Sessions are gentle, passive, and require no effort from the child.

Is LENS covered by insurance?

LENS is a self-pay service at ADAPT Network. We can provide a superbill for clients who wish to submit for possible out-of-network reimbursement, though coverage varies by plan and we cannot guarantee reimbursement.
