Why use a certified practitioner? (from the BCIA website)
The Biofeedback Certification Institute of America (BCIA) is the
only institute recognized worldwide granting certification to
biofeedback practitioners. BCIA was established in 1981 with the
mission of protecting the general public by establishing strict
standards for biofeedback practitioners. Currently, approximately 1,500
health care professionals have achieved this certification in general biofeedback, EEG biofeedback, or pelvic muscle dysfunction. Many clinicians have more than one certification.
Certification demonstrates professionalism and adherence to
carefully developed standards as a health care provider. Procedures are
consistent with the Department of Health & Human Services
Guidelines, giving credibility and evidence that your practitioner
maintains knowledge and skill levels.
Health care professionals who achieve BCIA Certification demonstrate
commitment to professionalism by completing basic degree and
educational requirements, learning to apply clinical biofeedback skills
during mentorship, and passing a written examination.
BCIA certified
professionals must agree to practice according to the Ethical
Principles of BCIA and of their profession and in accordance with
appropriate laws of their state. When working with a medical or
psychological disorder, a BCIA certificant must carry an appropriate
license/credential for independent practice or agree to work under the
supervision of another health care professional.
