Award Winning NeuroPsychologistAlptekin Aydin
Specialist Neuropsychologist
Dr. Alptekin AYDIN®
BA (Hons) - MSc - GMBPsS - PhD (DClinPsy) from US University. (CUBS)Expert Witness for Civil Law Certified TMS Practitioner - QEEG & Advanced EEG Interpretation Certificate
I was born in 1973 in Moda, Istanbul. After graduating with First-Class Honours (1st) from the Department of Psychology at Istanbul University, I completed my internship in Psychology and Philosophy Teaching Formation at Galatasaray High School. I worked on a research project aimed at identifying and correctly diagnosing and treating differences among autism, learning difficulties, and ADHD in children, as well as solving school adaptation problems in children.
I am a Specialist Neuropsychologist and a Certified TMS Practitioner interested in Neuromodulation Interventions. My academic and professional qualifications include a postgraduate Master’s degree in Psychology from the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience (IoPPN) at King’s College London, where I completed my training in Neurological and Pharmacological Substance Addiction. (I have an equivalence certificate from the Higher Education Council Recognition and Equivalency Services Department in Turkey.) I completed the International Clinical TMS Certification program at Maastricht University (UM), as a Certified Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and tDCS practitioner. This course is accredited by the European Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (EACCME). Additionally, I completed my doctorate (DClinPsy) in Clinical Psychology and Neuroscience in the United States, publishing a study for Assessing the Impact of tDCS Treatment Over the Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex (DLPFC) on Social Communication in Children with ASD: A Survey of Family Experiences.
In June 2014, I participated in the Greenwich Beresford project, jointly conducted by the UK Department of Health and King’s College University. In 2015, I helped many individuals with Gambling Addiction using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy through Redcard Gambling. I provided support in my field of expertise to many municipalities. Furthermore, I completed training in Mora Bioresonance (Quantum frequency technology) therapy for smoking, alcohol, and substance addiction and, with the title of Bioresonance Practitioner, treated over 3,000 adults for substance addiction using a combined treatment method (Neuromodulation TMS + Quantum Frequency therapy + Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) that I developed in 2018.
In 2018, for the first time in the world, I developed a scientific method called, “QPAN®”, QEEG-guided Personalised AI based Neuromodulation Therapy, this is an advanced therapeutic system, using QEEG functional brain map guidance supported with Neuromap® Artificial intelligence driven technology and TMS or tDCS neuromodulation treatment for individuals with special needs, targeting for Neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) such as, Autism spectrum, Learning Difficulties, Epilepsy, Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), anxiety, depression, OCD, neurological pain, stroke, and Addiction, substance misuse. since 2018, developed and registered by Dr. Alptekin Aydin®, QPAN® has been successfully applied to over 5,000 users with a success rate of 70-85%.
QPAN® integrates QEEG brain scan technology with Neuromap® Artificial intelligence driven holistic brain function mapping, and comprehensive neuromodulation protocols with individualised AI based therapy, education, sports, and nutrition programs. This comprehensive approach ensures that each patient receives personalized care tailored to their specific neurological and physiological needs.
I am also the founder and administrator of a private Facebook group with over 8,500 active families worldwide, who already had their treatment or continue the treatment, using QPAN® Model and sharing their experiences.
In 2022, I obtained an Expert Witness for Civil Law certification from the Cardiff School of Law and Politics (North Road) in the UK, in collaboration with Bond Solon. As a Specialist Neuropsychologist and expert witness, I prepare reports based on QEEG (Quantitative Electroencephalogram) functional brain mapping, which are scientifically grounded in biological markers. These reports are presented to courts, as well as to institutions such as the Home office and local municipalities. I provide explanations of the results from the functional maps in response to appeals and prepare medico-psychological reports detailing individuals' psychological conditions and the problems they face.
In 2022-2023, I received certification in QEEG Reporting and Program Use in Florida, USA. During the same period, I obtained an Advanced EEG Reading and Interpretation Certificate in Florida, USA, and had the opportunity to review and interpret thousands of EEGs and QEEG reports.
A trailblazer in remote autism treatment, Dr. Aydın was among the first to implement worldwide, home-based neuromodulation therapies guided by qEEG. Through a secure app-based system and CE-marked tDCS headsets, over 2,000 families globally now participate in remote QPAN® sessions. This unique model allows families to manage treatment in the comfort of their homes while following individualized, qEEG-guided protocols. Testimonials from families report significant progress, ease of application, and positive changes in daily behavior and social engagement.

1- QEEG-based functional brain mapping to support clinical formulation and neuromodulation planning (not a stand-alone diagnostic test or a replacement for clinical EEG or neurological assessment).
2- Non-invasive neuromodulation options such as rTMS and tDCS, used as adjuncts within a broader psychological and neurodevelopmental care plan alongside standard medical care.
3- Individual and family therapy, psychoeducation and environmental support tailored to the person’s needs.
Children with Autism, ADHD and Learning Difficulties treatment model
First Step, Quantitative Electroencephalogram (QEEG) Functional Brain Scanning A Quantitative Electroencephalogram (QEEG) is an advanced method of analysing EEG data. Certain QEEG-derived biomarkers have been cleared by the FDA as adjunctive tools to assist in the evaluation of conditions such as ADHD, but QEEG itself is not a stand-alone diagnostic test. In my practice, QEEG is used as a functional brain-mapping and decision-support tool that must always be interpreted together with clinical history, examination and standard assessments by appropriately qualified clinicians.
The Quantitative Electroencephalography (QEEG) and QEEG brain-mapping uses digital technology to study the brain's activities under different tasks and evaluates from a comprehensive perspective, to provide for improved treatment planning and outcome evaluation. The Federal Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has accepted the use of QEEG identified Biomarkers to assist in the diagnosis of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder and comorbid disorders. Several qEEG systems have been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the post-hoc analysis of EEGs and are classified as Class II devices. 88 In addition, a literature search on the MEDLINE database (1997 through 2008) using the terms quantitative EEG or qEEG retrieved 1545 articles.
Second Step
FDA & | NICE has issued guidance on the use of rTMS for treatment-resistant depression. There is emerging research for other conditions such as anxiety and attentional problems, but for these indications rTMS remains an adjunctive or experimental option rather than an established first-line treatment.(Please click here for more details)
Is rTMS safe for Children?
Available data suggest that rTMS can be used in carefully selected children within specialist settings, but the evidence base is still developing. Any consideration of rTMS in children should be made on a case-by-case basis, ideally within a multidisciplinary framework and alongside the child’s existing medical team. (Please click here for more details)
How the treatment works?
We are using A Quantitative Electroencephalogram (QEEG) functional brain scanning before we start the treatment, our Neuroscientists creates over 20 pages detailed brain mapping reports where she points out the most deviation parts of the brain. So according to qEEG results we are preparing individualised treatment protocols. We are also conducting a research to compare the pre and post qEEG results to prove the neurological differences to publish scientific articles. QEEG analysis may occasionally suggest patterns that raise concern about possible epileptiform activity. In such cases, formal diagnosis and management of epilepsy remain the responsibility of neurologists using standard clinical EEG and other investigations. Within neuromodulation planning, we use QEEG reports (prepared by consultant neurologists) to avoid stimulation patterns that could increase risk, and we only proceed where a responsible medical provider considers it appropriate.
What are we expecting from 30 sessions tms treatment?
Our aim is to improve quality of life for both children and parents by supporting functions such as attention, awareness, learning and motor skills. Many families report noticeable gains after a course of neuromodulation; however, outcomes vary and no specific improvement or time-frame can be guaranteed. Our treatments start from age 4 onwards and Most of these children's have high anxiety, OCD and depression since most of them are very young to use any prescribe medication, non-invasive and approved TMS protocols probably the most effective way to helping them to overcome these issues. During the treatment, you may see temporarily behavioural changes but this will get better after the first month of the treatment.

Personalised Functional Brain Mapping
QEEG BRAIN MAPPING & RTMS /TDCS TREATMENT
What is qEEG (Q- Electroencephalography )
Quantitative EEG (QEEG) brain mapping is used to record and analyse electrical activity in the brain using a non-invasive cap. These recordings are transformed into functional brain maps that help us understand which networks appear over- or under-active. QEEG reports are prepared in collaboration with consultant neurologists and are used to support clinical formulation and neuromodulation planning. QEEG is not a stand-alone diagnostic test and does not replace standard clinical EEG or neurological assessment.
rTMS treatment
After determining the active and passive regions of the brain, we aim to activate those regions by sending electromagnetic signals to the passive points with the TMS machine. In the application of TMS, a strong but short magnetic field is created from the outside and a therapeutic effect is created by changing the brain activity. Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive method that stimulates the neurons in the brain. used as a method. Weak electric currents induced in tissues by rapidly changing magnetic fields (electromagnetic induction) cause excitation. In this way, brain activity can be triggered or modulated without the need for surgery or external electrodes. Combining QEEG-based brain mapping with neuromodulation tools such as rTMS and tDCS allows us to design personalised protocols intended to support children and adults with conditions such as autism spectrum disorder, ADHD and learning difficulties. These protocols are delivered as part of a broader psychological and neuropsychological care pathway and do not replace standard medical assessment or treatment. Recurrent Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (tTMS) has been approved by FDA and NICE for Depression & Anxiety treatment as well as OCD treatment.
EXPERIENCE HISTORY
ADHD - ASD & LEARNING DIFFICULTIES
As a Clinical Psychology Assistant Practitioner (This title is valid only in Turkey) I worked 3 years on the project to comprehensive assessment for autism spectrum conditions, ADHD and learning disorders (including developmental history, standardised psychometrics and, where appropriate, QEEG-informed neuropsychological formulation). Any medical diagnosis remains the responsibility of the relevant medical specialists. Since all these three disorder have many similarities, it is not easy to diagnose and treat children. Over 50% of all children with ADHD also have a learning disorder. ADHD affects the ability to learn, In contrast, learning disorders are often quite specific such as reading, writing, or math. So, treating the symptoms of ADHD will not itself correct learning disorders. However, treating ADHD makes it possible to correct the learning disorder. Similarities between ASD and ADHD can lead to dual diagnoses in early childhood.
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a disorder of childhood. It is characterized by deficits in social skills (social interactions and social communication) and repetitive behaviors, activities, or interests. Combined, these two problems can severely limit ordinary activities and interests. Intelligence is often impaired, and the ability to learn and utilize new information is markedly restricted. Behavioral symptoms may include hyperactivity, aggressiveness, impulsivity, a short attention span, and temper tantrums. With the multimodal treatment approach using both medication and behavior therapy to treat Children with ADHD, ASD and learning difficulties would be the best approach. I currently provide TMS-based neuromodulation as part of a multimodal programme for children and young people with autism spectrum conditions, learning difficulties and ADHD. Many families report meaningful improvements in areas such as attention, communication and daily functioning; however, responses vary between individuals and no specific outcome can be guaranteed. Wherever neuromodulation is used, it is combined with psychological therapies and, where appropriate, medical and educational support.

GROUND-BREAKING TREATMENT!
TRANSCRANIAL MAGNETIC STIMULATION (TMS)
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive neuromodulation technique that uses magnetic pulses to influence target brain networks. As a certified TMS practitioner, I integrate TMS within structured care plans that include psychological therapies such as CBT. TMS is offered as an adjunct to, not a replacement for, medical and psychiatric care. Read More
ADDICTION SPECIALIST PSYCHOLOGIST
ALCOHOL & SUBSTANCE MISUSE
Over the past 3 years, I worked over 400 cannabis misuse cases alone and helped many of the clients during their treatment. There are many misconceptions about weed/cannabis use. They all believed what they have been using just a natural plant with even less harm than a cigarette. As a matter of fact, they try to purchase higher THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol) values and paying more to thinking that they are getting the best one. Well, in a way that is true they are getting the most harmful one by choosing the higher THC levels. Once you started to explain what THC does to their brain and their behaviour they started to see the picture.
I always tell the side effects or the problems before they started to share with me. This way they started to realise quicker how common these syndromes were and how much they effected. In most cases, they don't know why their motivation has gone and why they do not want to do anything, this could be waking up and going to school or even going out from their room. Secondly, they never realise why they stop having dreams. Since THC affecting their brain in a way that they skip the ram sleep and go directly deep sleep. when you explain how important having dreams even the dreams they do not remember and what does ram sleep to their memory and their lives, they surprised. Currently, offering combination therapy to stop substance misuse and getting over %97 postive results. I have been combining the Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and Mora Bioresonance Therapy with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) within 2 weeks and I am achieving wonderful results.

PANIC ATTACKS, ANXIETY, DEPRESSION, BIPOLAR DISORDERS, ALCOHOL,
COCAINE, CANNABIS, PROBLEMATIC GAMBLING
Over the last few years I worked with variety of clients who suffers from panic attacks, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorders, alcohol, cannabis, cocaine and problematic gambling addiction. I also helped many teenagers who have low Self-Esteem, Social Anxiety and cultural issues in their education I believe being able to share understandable and simple Psychopharmacological information, explaining all pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic made a huge difference on their perspective. Something that they could not find easily over the internet was actually fascinating them and improve the trust for their practitioner.
Sharing deeper information, scientific facts and most importantly list of issues they have been facing during their usage explaining how we can change this together not only boost their self-confidence, as their addiction practitioner, they believe there is someone out there to help them and they are not alone.
