When the brain is troubled, people tend to have trouble in their lives. A healthier brain leads to greater happiness and success in every aspect of a persons life – at work, at home, and in relationships.

towards the use of
neuroimaging and its use
in psychiatry.
– Daniel Amen, MD
Over the past 30 plus years we have built the world’s largest database of brain SPECT scans, which can be used to better understand ourselves and to create more effective treatments, so you and your loved ones can get the help they deserve. This is why we created the Change Your Brain Foundation.
Our veterans deserve better.
Since 2000, over 350,000 veterans have sustained a TBI, which increases the risk of depression, anxiety, ADHD, addiction, dementia, PTSD, and suicide. Each day, an estimated 16.8 veterans die by suicide.
Our youth deserve better.
75% of all mental health issues begin before age 25. Nearly 32% of adolescents have an anxiety disorder, over 6 million have ADHD, and 33% of 12th graders used an illicit substance in the past year. 57% of teenage girls report being persistently sad and 30% have considered suicide, which is the 2nd leading cause of death in youth ages 10 to 34.
Our seniors deserve better.
1 in 3 seniors die with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. Over 6 million people are currently living with Alzheimer’s, and that number is expected to more than double by 2050 with no cure in sight.
You deserve better.
