Yes, we do diagnostics as well.
We use qEEG (quantitative electroencephalogram) and other clinical psychology tools as part of our initial assessment to provide a more accurate diagnosis.
Our clinics are open from Monday to Friday:
- From 10am to 1pm
- From 2pm to 8pm
And on Saturdays:
- From 09h to 13h
- From 2pm to 7pm
However, the first evaluations are carried out only from Monday to Friday until 16h30/17h00, since, after this time, the child/adolescent's brain is already more tired as the day progresses, which may affect the accuracy of the results.
Learn about our approach:
1- Initial Assessment: We use Quantitative Electroencephalogram (qEEG) to assess the electrical activity of the brain and identify areas that need intervention.
2- Report and Definition of Objectives:We discuss the results of the evaluation with the family and define personalized therapeutic goals.
3- Personalized Treatment Plan: We have developed a treatment plan that can include Neurofeedback and Cognitive-Behavioral Psychotherapy, always adapted to the age group of the child.
4- Training Sessions: During Neurofeedback sessions, the child participates in activities that provide real-time feedback on brain activity, helping the brain to self-regulate.
5- Monitoring and Adjustments: We monitor progress and make adjustments to treatment as needed.
Our main treatments involve Neurofeedback and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, to help children and adolescents overcome the challenges associated with hyperactivity, attention deficit and anxiety.
Neurofeedback is a non-invasive technique that quantifies and trains brain activity, adjusting it to the brain waves expected for each person, considering age and sex.
This process promotes self-regulation and can minimize or even correct dysregulations identified in the pattern of brain activity.
As a result, the brain begins to function in a more balanced way, improving the physical and psychological well-being of the individual.
We offer care for children and adolescents, from 6 to 18 years. Each age group receives specialized and personalized care according to their needs.
Our clinics specialize exclusively in the monitoring of children and adolescents from 6 to 18 years old, so already we do not provide services to adults.
Yes, we have an agreement with some insurers.
As these agreements may vary over time, we recommend that you contact us directly on 220 280 010 for the most up-to-date information about our partnerships.
The prices of our services vary according to the type of consultation and treatment required, the method of payment and whether or not you have associated insurance.

No, we do not use medication at NeuroImprove. Our focus is on non-invasive approaches, such as Neurofeedback and Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, that help develop self-regulation mechanisms and improve well-being naturally.
However, if the need for introduction or adjustment of medication is identified, we work together with the prescribing physicians to ensure an integrated and appropriate follow-up.
No, Neurofeedback does not interfere with medication. It is a non-invasive technique that can complement the use of medications, helping to improve focus, self-regulation and well-being.
Any medication adjustment should be made exclusively by the prescribing physician, and we work together to ensure an integrated and safe approach.
Yes, for families who live far away, we can arrange an intensive treatment with daily sessions for a month or at adjusted periods, such as on school holidays.
However, we were only able to plan this type of treatment after the initial evaluation.
You can get to know our team and their professional career by visiting the page Who We Are.
Depending on the age of the child/adolescent and the type of treatment applied, we can offer online Clinical Psychology consultations.
However, some of our treatments (such as Neurofeedback) are performed only in person, since the complexity and use of specialized equipment require the physical presence of our clients.
ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) is a neurodevelopmental condition generally present since childhood. Although external factors, such as stress, can intensify symptoms, the origin of PHDA is mainly genetic and neurobiological.

My daughter had a lot of anxiety that was even affecting her at school level but thanks to this treatment she improved immensely. This would be very noticeable in school and it does not seem the same. I recommend.
I really liked the accompaniment. What we want to improve is always taken into account and affects us the most. I am a completely different person, much calmer and more focused. Neurofeedback makes all the difference! I strongly advise those who manage to get green for this type of treatment
I liked it from the care to the treatment, my son is 8 years old suffers from anxiety and has attention deficit. With the help of neurofeedback you can already control your anxiety, you are calmer and more confident and your attention has improved a lot.
We are having an excellent experience. In a few sessions and you can already notice results. Great professionals and very welcoming, both at the reception and therapists. Thank you
I found a friend at the NeuroImprove Clinic when I was already desperate because all the doors were closing for my son. Today he is a teenager with friends and a super normal life, and with a very strong self-esteem. This achievement of mine is due to this magnificent clinic that has a team of excellent professionals.
Fantastic clinic and team and always looking for agenda solutions and helping the children in this case my daughter. I highly recommend coming to Porto from Lisbon because the confidence is maximum and the support, the professionalism of the teams, the way they explain the progress of the sessions can only give improvements..
It's been a very positive experience. Although there are not many sessions yet, we have already noticed differences in our son. We always give feedback in all sessions and we have the opportunity to follow the results with the evaluations made before, during and after the program. Thank you all, they are an excellent team.

An excellent follow-up with results that exceeded my expectations in my child's Hyperactivity.
I noticed a lot of differences in my son, namely in his behavior, more in relation to me, that we were with authority problems, but thank goodness he has corrected! And if I eventually need treatment again, this is where I will go for sure! Many thanks to the whole team always ready to help, and Dra. Beatriz for all the support and affection given throughout our journey! Thank you all at NeuroImprove 🙏❤️
