What is Brainspotting Therapy?
Brainspotting is a powerful, innovative therapeutic approach that helps you process and heal from Trauma and PTSD. Developed by Dr. David Grand, Brainspotting Therapy focuses on the connection between the brain and the body, allowing clients to access and process deep-seated emotional pain and Trauma.
How Does Brainspotting Work?
Brainspotting utilizes the concept of "brain spots," which are specific eye positions that correlate with emotional and physical pain. By focusing on these spots, you can access and process traumatic memories and emotions in a safe and supportive environment.
- Eye Positioning: Your ACRS therapist guides you to find a brainspot that resonates with your Trauma.
- Processing: You are encouraged to explore your feelings and sensations while maintaining focus on the brainspot.
- Integration: Your therapy helps integrate the traumatic experience, leading to healing and resolution.
