What is BrainSpotting?

BrainSpotting is a form of therapy that was developed by Dr. David Grand in the early 2000s. It is a highly effective and efficient form of therapy that helps people to release trauma and other emotional stressors that are stored in their bodies. BrainSpotting works by utilizing eye movements and other body-centered techniques to help individuals access and process difficult emotions and memories. The therapy is based on the principle that the brain and body are interconnected, and that trauma and other emotional stressors can be stored in the body as well as in the mind.

How Does BrainSpotting Work?

BrainSpotting works by utilizing eye movements and other body-centered techniques to help individuals access and process difficult emotions and memories. During a session, the therapist will help the client to identify a specific “BrainSpot,” which is a specific point in the body that is associated with a particular emotion or memory. Once the BrainSpot has been identified, the therapist will guide the client through a process of focusing on the BrainSpot while using eye movements, tapping, or other body-centered techniques to help release the trapped emotions.

The Effectiveness of BrainSpotting

BrainSpotting has been shown to be highly effective in treating a wide range of emotional and psychological issues, including trauma, anxiety, depression, and stress. The therapy has also been shown to be particularly effective in treating post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), as well as other conditions that are related to trauma, such as chronic pain and headaches. In addition, has been shown to be an effective treatment for performance anxiety and other performance-related issues, as well as for addiction and other behavioral health problems.
