Dr. Andrew Simon is board certified by the BCIA as a biofeedback therapist. He has been using biofeedback as a form of treatment since 2011 in his early days as a student clinician mentoring under Dr. Brad Lichtenstein, ND, BCB.

Using an awareness-driven CBT approach, Biofeedback is about understanding the signals of your physiology and how they represent your body’s natural response to stress. By being aware of how your breath affects your heart rate, or how your mind can affect the temperature of your extremities, Dr. Andrew Simon guides his patients through mindful approaches to managing anxiety, depression, PTSD, ADHD, trauma, and anger. A sustainable practice designed to help patients transition to a more resilient and robust nervous system capable of moving through various stages of life and the challenges it brings to our own sense of self, relationships with others, and how we orient to the world we live in.

Taking an initial intake with a new patient is more than just intake forms, it is about finding what goals a patient has to really take their health to the next level out of the disease models of care our traditional medical systems manage. Using a mind-body approach to understanding primary care, Dr. Andrew Simon encourages an awareness of how our behavioral actions in our day affect our interaction with our environment. Discerning how our symptoms or how we are feeling could be a reflection of the mental health environment we place ourselves in, and how this aggravates or affects true disease pathology from genetics, life experiences, trauma, injury, and consequences of living.

Using proper biomechanics, ergonomics, and anatomy to teach ourselves new ways of navigating away from pain, Dr. Andrew Simon has core training in musculoskeletal medicine similar to an osteopathic physician as a hybrid of what a chiropractor, physical therapist, and primary physician would embody in their care all in one.
