    Brain Balance Achievement Center of Boise-Eagle, ID has become a Board Certified Cognitive Center (BCCC), designated by the International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards (IBCCES).

    Brain Balance offers a personalized, drug-free program that provides answers to social, emotional, behavioral and academic development.

Both Dr. Booth and Dawna Booth have worked in the mental health field in Idaho since 1988 and found this certification and training program helped the team have better understanding and tools to assist all students.

    “For seven years we have been using cutting-edge information on the brain to help children overcome neurodevelopmental challenges. We see significant and rewarding changes in our children. We are especially grateful to the many parents who have trusted us with their children and have worked tirelessly side by side with us to create that change,” said Dawna Booth, Executive Director at Boise-Eagle Center.

    Brain Balance was founded in 2007 and currently has more than 100 centers. Brain Balance employs a personalized and integrative approach through sensory engagement, physical development, academics and nutrition.

    “Professional training is incredibly important in our industry, and IBCCES has standardized training and certification that is globally recognized,” said Dr. Rebecca Jackson, Vice President of Programs and Outcomes at Brain Balance Achievement Centers. “We worked closely with the IBCCES team to develop instruction that meets the needs of our more than 100 centers. This new training program will give our team an even greater understanding as they work with students who face challenges with attention and focus, anxiety, learning, socialization and more.”

    For over 20 years, IBCCES has been the industry leader in cognitive disorder training and certification for education, healthcare, and corporate professionals around the globe. IBCCES provides evidence-based training and certification programs created in conjunction with clinical experts and individuals with autism in order to provide professionals serving individuals with cognitive disorders a better understanding of what these disorders are, industry best practices, varied perspectives, and the latest research in these areas.
