Lynette Louise aka THE BRAIN BROAD is doubly board certified in Neurofeedback and has an MS. She is studying for her PhD in Clinical Psychology with a specialty in Psychophysiology at Saybrook University Global mental health expert Lynette Louise raised eight children. Six of her children were adopted and four of those were on the autism spectrum. Lynette prioritized raising her children into functional adults and succeeded despite her five broken marriages. According to Lynette "I would get married in the hopes that someone would save me. That doesn't work by the way. In the end I focused on saving my kids and saved myself in the process." Lynette was able to guide all but one off the spectrum and into lives of independence. When asked about her secret Lynette says, "Well, I laugh a lot. I see autism as adorable and quirky and since laughter as just joy percolating it heals. After all when you percolate joy you can't help but save a few lives. Isn't the very definition of saving a life is taking it from misery to joyfulness?" Lynette travels internationally performing and speaking on the subject of autism and the efficacy of neurofeedback (biofeedback for the brain) administered with joyfulness. Offering a playful therapy of fun, family dynamics counseling and neurofeedback-- she effectively helps parents become confident experts in their family's healing. She is the author of the refreshingly honest and at times hilarious new book MIRACLES ARE MADE: A Real Life Guide to Autism.

Black or White This article was inspired by a beautiful picture of Mr. Rogers soaking his feet in a small plastic pool with a black man. The image is a fantastic example of resistance and leadership, but the part that stuck most with me was the date: 1969. I was twelve that year.

Brain Changes that Lead to Depression and Addiction can be Harnessed for Healing There is an important thing happening in the world. Mental illness is becoming less of a hidden secret while more people speak up and out, insisting on being heard and on erasing the cruel stigma around most invisible brain dysfunctions. This is good. But we must be careful. Keep an eye on cultivating answer-oriented frames of mind. In this article I offer some answers for discussion and implementation.

Bill Cosby did us a Favor Loving Bill Cosby felt safe. The confusion is frighteningly common when a perpetrator is someone we love. And most perpetrators are someone we love. We must learn to love, forgive, and not tolerate these actions. How we do this is surprisingly simple.

November is National Adoption Awareness Month - Adoption is Exactly What We Need November is the month to honor Adoption, but it Got Blasted under the table By Bombs, Shooters, Refugees and Politicians. So nobody is talking about adoption. But the strange thing is adoption is exactly what we should be talking about. Especially now. Surrounded by Bombs, Shooters, Refugees and Politicians.

Dear Auntie Carol -- Book Excerpt Recently I was invited, as a speaker for RAINN (Rape Abuse Incest National Network) to contribute to a book they are soon publishing. A book that will include letters from survivors of sexual abuse. This is my book excerpt. A letter to my Auntie Carol.

Autism Awareness, Mother's Day, and Parenting I peer forward into the next twelve months. I see April with autism awareness month and sexual abuse awareness month coincidentally coincide and feel the weight of that collision (both are causes I speak on). Today I feel a little tired as I question my faith: If awareness works why do these months have to come back every year?
