A Tailored Approach to Trauma Treatment
Brainspotting therapy is an innovative approach to treating trauma and related conditions, especially since trauma’s effects are so far-reaching. It is an ideal option for:
- Anxiety
- Attachment Issues
- Substance Use
- Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
- Chronic Pain
- Major Depressive Disorder
How Does Brainspotting Work?
During a Brainspotting session, the therapist will use a pointer to draw the eye to various positions – or Brainspots. This will activate certain parts of the brain to access and help process negative past experiences. The client does not need to discuss these traumatic events if they choose not to and will listen to acoustic sounds using headphones during the session.
Brainspotting is a somatic practice, exploring the connection between the body and the mind. In addition to Brainspotting, we also offer Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). Both therapies are used for treating trauma with the aid of the mind-body connection.
