Brainspotting

Brainspotting locates points in the client’s visual field that help to access unprocessed trauma in the subcortical brain. Brainspotting was discovered in 2003 by David Grand, Ph.D. Over 20,000 therapists have been trained in Brainspotting (52 internationally), in the United States, South America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia, Australia and Africa. Dr. Grand discovered that “Where you look affects how you feel.” It is the brain activity, especially in the subcortical brain that organizes itself around that eye position.

“Where you look affects how you feel.”

"I had a session 24 hours after a disturbing incident. I couldn’t get all the negative thoughts out of my mind until going through brainspotting. I can’t explain how or why, but this made me feel better".
"Brainspotting went even further than EMDR. Brainspotting removed the ability for me to recall the smell of the trauma and allowed me to access memories beyond that one horrible week that were actually positive about the person I lost".
"The cool thing about brainspotting is that you can do it silently; I can watch the thing I am upset about disappear in my head. I like that it is so fast and that I have the ability to focus on many things related and unrelated to it".
"Brainspotting let me use a lot less brain power, as my bandwidth is already full and this helped me realize what I needed in a natural way. It helped me listen to my body. I felt lighter and more positive about the anxiety after just one session".
“Brainspotting is based on the profound attunement of the therapist with the patient, finding a somatic cue and extinguishing it by down-regulating the amygdala. It isn’t just PNS (Parasympathetic Nervous System) activation that is facilitated, it is homeostasis”
