Bio

Andrew Hill, PhD is a cognitive neuroscientist and founder of Peak Brain Institute in Los Angeles. Over 25 years he has reviewed more than 25,000 brain maps, working with overwhelmed entrepreneurs, burnt-out creatives, professional athletes, and people who were simply told their brains were “too much.” He is a co-author of The QEEG Field Guide (Hill & Lomeli, forthcoming) and the author of Gifted & Tortured (Peak Brain Press).

He lives in Los Angeles with too many screens, not enough sleep, and a brain that still thinks too much.

Interview topics

Brain mapping

What a QEEG shows about attention, anxiety, and sleep that a questionnaire cannot.

ADHD without medication

The brain patterns behind attention problems, and what training can and cannot change.

The fast brain

Why ADHD, anxiety, and giftedness so often show up in the same wiring.

Anxiety, mechanically

The circuits that build an anxious pattern, and how a brain unlearns one.

Sleep and performance

The brain signatures that wreck sleep, and how to train them.

Clinical neurofeedback

How clinical brain training differs from the consumer headbands, and what the evidence supports.

Suggested questions

  • Why do ADHD, anxiety, and giftedness keep turning up in the same brain?
  • Can you train attention without medication, and what does the research show?
