Asperger's is a developmental disorder in which individuals have impaired social awareness and social interaction, often preferring to be alone rather than interact with others. Many with Asperger's are highly intelligent, apt to be inflexible or adaptive and are often draw to singular activities and professions such as art, the sciences and mathematics. They are often highly accomplished, but socially uncomfortable. Individuals with Asperger's may fail to read social cues and experience exclusion in peer groups. On a one-to-one basis they are often delightful and entertaining companions but tend to retreat in group situations. They are exquisitely sensitive and may also suffer from anxiety, depression and sleep issues.

Neurofeedback training can help to relax the individual, decrease depression and anxiety and improve the reading of faces and facial cues. As with other individuals care assessment must be made to determine whether processing or attentional problems coexist. This assessment is undertaken in a 1-1/2 to 2- hour interview and may be combined with results of neuropsychiatric testing, IVA, or QEEG (Quantitative ElectroEncephaloGraphy). QEEG is a method using universal sites for EEG to look at abnormal brain wave patterns.
