About Herts EEG-Biofeedback

Zuzana Kovacova is an experienced psychologist, biofeedback and stress management practitioner who helps overwhelmed, emotionally drained people who find themselves in the spiral of stress to rebalance their emotions, eliminate unnecessary worries and transform stressful situations into opportunities so they can live a more meaningful, self aware and resilient life.

Zuzana’s mind-body holistic approach is changing the common perspective from the typical couch therapy purging out of past experiences, to one where the body is also seen as part of the experience itself, and as such is integrated in the healing process by restoring its natural, internal balance.

Herts EEG-Biofeedback is a unique stress management and biofeedback practice, where you can learn how to build your resilience to stress by taking care of your physical and emotional health!

We will guide you in the process of transformation from stressful, energy draining and imbalanced life to the healing experience of self-awareness, self-regulation and coherence so you can form an overall lifestyle of emotional power and resilience.

Our main goal is to introduce you to pleasant and relaxing techniques, using your natural body resources, as effective, painless and non-invasive alternative to medication.

Biofeedback training can teach you how to use your mind and natural sources within you to regulate your body. Such self-regulation skills can help you move towards a more optimal level of functioning and healthy behaviour.

By using this powerful, painless and non-invasive mind-body training you can learn to overcome stress, maximize your performance and bring more balance and well-being to your life.

About your practitioner:

Zuzana Kovacova MA(Psych), MBPsS, LNCP, ADV. Dip. PSM

After attaining a degree in Psychology at Presov University in Slovakia (focusing on the field of health related behaviour, stress and chronic pain) and working as a member of a professional team of doctors and psychologists, Zuzana was an active participant in chronic pain and anxiety research which was consequently published in a number of medical journals.

Whilst working as a psychologist in Juvenile Justice Centre, Zuzana had the opportunity to discover the powerful field of biofeedback but also truly experience how the daily exposure to trauma, suffering and pain of the others can leave compassionate helpers and caregivers emotionally exhausted and lead to burnout. She suffered from compassion fatigue and left her beloved work, country and family and went on the long journey of self-discovery.

In October 2004, Zuzana moved to England and after 7 years and few dramatic career changes, she finally empowered herself to return to the profession she always loved to. Somewhere deep inside she felt that the only profession which could ever fulfill her was supporting and enabling others.

Zuzana’s further studies included successfully completing an:
• Advanced Diploma in Professional Stress Management at the College of Integrated Therapies
• Training in biofeedback and neurofeedback from Society of Applied Neuroscience.
* HeartMath Sport Professional Certificate for 1:1 Coaching
* Compassion Fatigue Specialist Training issued by Traumatology Institute in Canada

In addition, she also attended training in:
• Relaxation therapy at The UK College of Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy
• Award in Preparing to Teach in the Lifelong Learning sector (PTLLS) at Hertford Regional College
* Certificate in Heart Rate Variability Biofeedback awarded by Prof. R. Gevirtz
