Brainspotting is a therapeutic technique that utilizes the connection between eye position and emotional and psychological experiences. It helps clients access and process trauma and other deep-seated issues by identifying specific "brain spots" that correspond to their feelings.
-
During a session, a therapist guides you to find specific eye positions that correspond to areas of emotional distress. By focusing on these spots, you can process and release traumatic memories or unresolved feelings more effectively.

In a Brainspotting session, you'll be in a safe and supportive environment. Your therapist will help you identify your focus and guide you through the process of finding your brain spots. You may experience a range of emotions as you process your feelings, but the therapist will support you throughout.

Brainspotting can be beneficial for a wide range of individuals, including those dealing with trauma, anxiety, depression, and performance issues. However, it's essential to discuss your specific needs during our consultation call to determine if it's the right approach for you.

The number of sessions varies based on individual needs and the complexity of the issues being addressed. Some clients experience significant relief after just a few sessions, while others may require more extended work. Your therapist will discuss a tailored plan with you.
