This study will evaluate the influence of neurofeedback training on participant's overall sense of well-being, and additionally, whether any enhanced well-being is subsequently associated with positive changes in symptoms of obsessive compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress, dissociation and other trauma-related mental health symptoms, emotional regulation, etc.
