Jan Yordy
Ontario, Canada
Jan started her career as an elementary teacher in Indiana in 1973 and received a master’s degree in education in 1977. Moving to Ontario, Canada and starting a family in 1979 was a big transition in her life. Later Jan decided to pursue a Masters of Social Work degree graduating in 1994. Specializing in working with children she was able to start private practice counselling in 1996 which she continued for over twenty- five years. Jan’s fascination with the brain and how to change it was reflected by her becoming a Brain Gym Instructor, and receiving certifications in Play Therapy, Energy Psychology and EMDR. Her interest in helping children and the people who support them led to her creating educational games and resources and in publishing two children’s books. (www.energyconnectiontherapies.com ) Jan plans to publish her third children’s book shortly called, Be the Boss of Your Energy, An Introduction to the World of Energy.
In 2004 along with two partners Jan helped to create the Integrated Center for Optimal Learning (ICOL) where they supported children and teens with learning differences. Jan’s contribution to the center was the emotional counselling she did with children and teens. It was in 2005 that Jan first discovered NeurOptimal® Neurofeedback and quickly realized that it could be a core piece of how they were transforming brains at ICOL. Along with her partners, they witnessed incredible shifts and miracles as the children and teens trained their brains using NeurOptimal® as part of their learning program.
Jan was part of ICOL for nine years before she left to set up her own center to do counselling and an active neurofeedback program. Jan has decided at this age and stage to transition from offering counselling and neurofeedback to just focusing on her NeurOptimal® business. After over fourteen years working with NeurOptimal® neurofeedback, Jan is a certified advanced NeurOptimal® trainer as well as a NeurOptimal® Representative. Jan also completed NeurOptimal® Facilitation training and is providing two days, in person certification training for new or potential new owners of NeurOptimal® systems. She would be happy to answer your neurofeedback questions or support you in getting started with NeurOptimal® sessions, renting, or purchasing a system and acquiring certification training.

Training and Inspiration
I am filled with gratitude for this weekend certification training. It was just wonderful to be in Jan’s energy all weekend. I was inspired by her work and the journey ahead. She has instilled confidence in being able to provide NeurOptimal for our community. I am looking forward to seeing how everything unfolds!
Great results from renting a system
I’ve really enjoyed having the NeurOptimal rental system and have taken full advantage of it. I’m very grateful for it because I’m noticing a lot of benefit. It’s amazing how much my resilience and ability to “bounce back” and just generally feel okay has increased. Very grateful for the calm and trust I feel in my system right now. Thanks, Jan!
Educational and effective!
The basic training certification for NeurOptimal(R) helped me to really understand the philosophy, theory, history, and basics behind the NeurOptimal(R) training process in optimizing the brain’s resiliency and flexibility. I feel much more confident moving forward and delivering these services to clients. Thank you to Jan for delivering a very educational and effective training course!
