Brainspotting
Are You Struggling With?
Understanding Brainspotting Therapy
Brainspotting is a powerful, focused treatment method that helps people identify, process, and release sources of emotional pain and trauma. During a session, a trained therapist will guide you to specific eye positions—known as brainspots—that correlate with unprocessed trauma or distress. These brainspots help access parts of the brain where emotional pain and tension are held, enabling deeper processing and resolution than traditional talk therapy alone.
The importance of Brainspotting lies in its capacity to reach the brain’s emotional center quickly, facilitating breakthroughs for clients who feel “stuck.” It’s particularly effective for trauma, anxiety, depression, and other emotional challenges. This approach allows clients to achieve lasting relief by directly addressing the brain’s physiological responses, helping to unlock new paths toward healing and personal growth.
