"Brainspotting is a powerful, focused treatment method that works by identifying, processing, and releasing core neurophysiological sources of emotional/body pain, trauma, dissociation, and a variety of other challenging symptoms. Brainspotting is a simultaneous form of diagnosis and treatment.

Brainspotting functions as a neurobiological tool to support the clinical healing relationship. There is no replacement for a mature, nurturing therapeutic presence and the ability to engage another suffering human in a safe and trusting relationship where they feel heard, accepted, and understood.

Brainspotting gives us a tool, within this clinical relationship, to neurobiologically locate, focus, process, and release experiences and symptoms that are typically out of reach of the conscious mind and its cognitive and language capacity.

Brainspotting works with the deep brain and the body through its direct access to the autonomic and limbic systems within the body’s central nervous system. Brainspotting is a physiological tool/treatment that has profound psychological, emotional, and physical consequences."  - Brainspotting.com 

In simple words, Brainspotting is a brain-based, somatic therapy that allows us to access the area of the brain (the limbic system) where traumatized energy becomes trapped or left unprocessed. This pent-up energy can leave us with feelings of chronic stress, anxiety, pain, disordered eating, addictions, anger, and more. Together, we will process this energy by finding a location in your line of vision that you feel drawn to gaze at while you allow yourself to feel activated within your body over a particular experience, stress, anxiety, or trauma. 

 Most people need at least 3-6+ sessions to process a particular issue entirely, but - many times, there is relief after just one session. 

We know this sounds a little different than your typical therapy, which is why most people like it. We offer a free 20-minute discovery call to answer all your questions and explain the technical stuff in a way you can easily understand. So please feel free to book yours now. We are here to help.
