OUR CLIENTS
"I cannot speak highly enough about the life-changing impact that Optiminds has had on me. For a long time I was coasting through life with a constant cloud and fogginess over me. My concentration was poor and I wasn’t able to focus on anything for any length of time.
Thanks to Lauren's guidance, I have been able to break through the barriers that held me back for so long. After the first session, I noticed a marked improvement, and this has continued… so much so I am over a year down the line and feel I could take on the world.
If you're looking for a place to turn for help with improving your focus and productivity, I highly recommend Optiminds. Lauren is a credit to her profession and a genuinely caring and honest person.Thank you, Lauren, and Optiminds for everything!"

“Before the pandemic, I visited Lauren for the first time. I was feeling anxious and extremely tired. Despite trying medication, it hadn't been effective, and I had almost accepted that I would feel this way for the rest of my life. However, after a few sessions with Lauren, I noticed a significant improvement in how I felt. With each subsequent session, this feeling continued to grow. I am incredibly grateful that I had these sessions before the pandemic, as they helped me manage my anxiety during a time when everyone was feeling anxious. Lauren is enthusiastic, kind, and understanding, and nothing was too much trouble. I highly recommend Optiminds, even for deep-rooted issues like mine.”

After years of struggling with various aspects of my life, such as sleep, organisation, and many aspects of working in a professional environment, I was referred to work with Lauren following an adult ADHD diagnosis.
Having previously witnessed the positive impact of Lauren's work on others, I approached the sessions feeling optimistic but also somewhat self-conscious, unsure of what to expect.
However, Lauren's kindness, empathy, and expertise quickly put me at ease, and I found myself eagerly anticipating our weekly sessions and the opportunity to discuss how ADHD symptoms had affected the previous week.
I began to experience the benefits of neurofeedback after just a few sessions and greatly appreciated how Lauren tailored them to address specific issues or challenges.
The impact of working with Lauren has been profound. My sleep difficulties have practically disappeared, I am able to organise my thoughts more clearly, and my ability to regulate myself during stressful periods has grown significantly.
I wholeheartedly recommend Optiminds because the results are truly life-changing. Lauren combines her expertise with genuine care and understanding.

Brain training has helped me a lot, my behaviour has got a lot better and my mum thinks I have got nicer and less angry. I totally agree with her! I used to be angry at the world and I did not like people, but now I have more friends. I want to do brain training again!
Priscilla, 9
“Brain training has had a life-changing impact on our daughter Priscilla and our family. We have witnessed a significant transformation in her behavior, as she is now much calmer at home and no longer experiences sudden outbursts. Even when she does get upset, it is much easier to help her calm down quickly. It seems that Priscilla has managed to deactivate her anger switch and no longer escalates to the same level of anger or violence. Brain training has returned our daughter to us, and we are incredibly grateful for the positive changes it has brought to our lives.”
Cheryl, Priscilla’s mum
“You are fortunate to be visiting the Optiminds website. In 2019, my curiosity led me to read about the life-changing results of neurofeedback for children. As someone who has focused on children's well-being, I was amazed and excited about the potential of neurofeedback. Thankfully, I stumbled upon Optimind's website and discovered Lauren Sharples. I wondered if neurofeedback could also benefit the aging brain, and it absolutely did.
Neurofeedback significantly helped me with concentration, mood, energy, sleep, and overall cognitive performance. I even noticed a substantial increase in my typing speed. While undergoing neurofeedback is a commitment, I strongly encourage anyone who is uncertain about trying it for themselves or their loved ones to give it a try.
Lauren is an expert in neurofeedback, very professional, likeable, and easy to work with. From my experience, she is dedicated to improving people's lives through neurofeedback and other therapies.
Despite being 72 years old as I write this, thanks to Lauren, I feel and act much younger.”
Rob, 72
"Brain Training has helped me to go to sleep and I am not nearly as worried during the day. I enjoyed the training it was fun. My grades have improved in school and I am a much happier person."
James, 11
"I've had lifelong issues with anxiety and depression. After dealing with the root causes, my brain was still not able to switch over to a healthier state. This is where neurofeedback came in. With the help of Lauren, I was able to reverse decades of harmful and unnecessary brain activity in to a calm and productive state of mind that has since allowed me to live up to my full emotional and social potential.
Lauren is a fantastic practitioner, who listens to your concerns and does everything she can so that you can get the most out of your sessions."

"Brain Training has really helped me to concentrate at school and calm down. I have got better at Maths!"
William, 7
"Since Niall has been having weekly Brain Training sessions we have, over time, observed an improved clarity in his school work, improvement in handwriting skills, clearer focus and improved concentration."
Niall's Parents
"Brain training has really helped both Jack and us. Jack is still the same boy with the same issues, but now almost every day is a good day- previously they were few and far between. And when issues do arise he seems better able to cope with them. For us, it’s the little things as much as anything else which have made a difference."
Jack's Dad
"I like brain training because it makes me happy. Before I used to push people when I was angry but now when somebody makes me angry, I can just count to ten and calm down. Now I am always good in class."
