Dr. McGuinness treats a wide range of conditions requiring psychological treatment or emotional support. She has considerable experience with addictions, including smoking and overeating. She is certified as proficient in the treatment of alcohol and drug abuse by the American Psychological Association College of Professional Psychology. She has also received considerable training in psychopharmacology and is extremely comfortable collaborating with M.D.'s to achieve optimal results from medication. She has combined clinical practice with her love of animals by using one of her dogs as an adjunct to therapy at times. Piaf is very popular with children (and sometimes adults too). In addition, Dr. McGuinness works with pet bereavement issues as well as human.

Neurofeedback training provides Dr. McGuinness the opportunity to combine her expertise in neural processing with Clinical Psychology. She has considerable experience doing neurofeedback with children and adults with AD/HD. The Range of disorders treated has rapidly expanded. We aree now using neurofeedback to treat a wide range of psychological and medical conditions. Often, we find we can optimize treatment by combining traditional psychotherapy with neurofeedback training.

Medical conditions treated include sleep disorders, hypertension, migraine, PMS, and pain management. Psychological conditions such as panic attacks, generalized anxiety, and depression also respond well to neurofeedback training. In our experience, a multi-modal approach using behavioral interventions as well as neurofeedback produces optimal results in most cases. For some children, neurofeedback alone is indicated when the child does not relate to others well enough to benefit from conventional therapy at first
