Nach Ansicht der Linken könne es nicht sein, dass Kinder und Jugendliche mit Verhaltensauffälligkeiten verstärkt in der Kinder- und Jugendpsychiatrie landeten und mit Medikamenten "abgefüllt" würden. Klepsch zufolge beträgt die Wartezeit für einen Termin beim Schulpsychologen in Sachsen mehrere Wochen. Auf eine Fachkraft kämen bis zu 12.500 Schüler.

Several scientific studies have already demonstrated that neurofeedback treatment has beneficial and lasting effects in the treatment of ADHD (Arns et al, 2009). A new development in psychiatry is that of 'tailor-made treatments' sometimes referred to as ‘personalized medicine’. This development is becoming more and more popular due to the fact that most ‘conventional’ treatments in psychiatry have demonstrated limited efficacy. The development of personalized medicine therefore focuses more on providing the right treatment for the right person in order to achieve a more effective treatment outcome. In a study conducted by Research Institute Brainclinics, neurofeedback protocols were tailored to the individual patient. On the basis of patients’ individual brain activity measured by quantitative EEG -- also called a QEEG - it was determined which well-investigated neurofeedback protocol was applied to a specific patient. Sixty-seven percent of patients responded well to this treatment (more than 50% reduction in symptoms).
