Roxana Sasu
Executive Director
Roxana Sasu was born, raised, and educated in Romania. She received her MD from Carol Davila Faculty for General Medicine and Pharmacy, Bucharest, Romania, and she became licensed in 1999. Subsequently she became involved in nutritional research and used nutritional supplements in conjunction with standard Western medical care. During this time (2004-2006), she also earned her Master's in Marketing and Business Communication from the Academy of Economic Studies, Bucharest.
In 2007, she immigrated to the US to be with her future husband, and shortly
after, she joined the clinical staff at the EEG Institute, working directly with Susan
Othmer, earning her OMC Neurofeedback certification. In her clinical practice, Roxana
has worked with a multitude of brain-related disorders, from children with developmental disorders to anxiety and depression, addictive behaviors, and stroke recovery, as well as chronic pain and PTSD. She divides her time between clinical work at her private practice, Neurotopia, in Woodland Hills and teaching professional training courses in the US, Europe, and Asia.

In 2022, she published an article in Frontiers for Human Neuroscience: Infra-Low Frequency Neurofeedback in Persistent Postural-Perceptual Dizziness -Case Study as part of the research topic “Endogenous Neuromodulation in the Infra-Low Frequency Regime”.
