Reading Anxiety in Brainwaves: Can Brain Scans Guide Better Treatment
In this episode, your AI hosts explore how electroencephalography (EEG) can help us move beyond trial-and-error approaches to treating anxiety. Based on Dr. Steven Rondeau’s clinical insights, we examine the unique EEG patterns seen across various anxiety disorders—including GAD, panic disorder, PTSD, OCD, and social anxiety—and how these patterns might inform more personalized, effective interventions.
We unpack how alpha, beta, and theta band activity shifts in response to pharmacological treatments, and how EEG biomarkers might even help predict who will respond—or not respond—to antidepressants and anxiolytics. The conversation also touches on how these insights could reduce the risk of side effects, including increased suicidality, often overlooked in standard treatment models.
