What is Brainspotting therapy?

There is an overwhelming amount of research that tells us trauma is “stored” in our body and that it can be challenging to access simply by talking about it. These “stored” negative emotions can affect the health of our thoughts, brain function, memory, and physical health.

Brainspotting is used to assist people in accessing, processing through, and overcoming holistic pain, trauma, and negative emotion.

During a Brainspotting session, therapists help people position their eyes in ways that enable them to target sources of negative emotion. With the aid of a pointer, trained Brainspotting therapists slowly guide the eyes of people in therapy across their field of vision to find appropriate “brainspots,” with a brainspot being an eye position that activates a traumatic memory or painful emotion.
