OUR PHILOSOPHY
“The more you are curious to know, the more you grow.”
We believe in the power of collaborative learning and the continuous evolution of brain/body relational practices. Through shared knowledge and community support, we’re advancing the field of Brainspotting together.
Understanding Brainspotting
A revolutionary approach that taps into the brain’s natural healing ability to address trauma, anxiety, emotional blocks, and enhance creativity and sports performance.
Brainspotting is a gentle, powerful, focused mindfulness tool based on current neuroscientific understanding of how our mind/body system processes memories, emotions, and trauma. This innovative approach recognizes that the brain knows how to heal itself, given the right conditions and support.
Through the deep brain-body connection, Brainspotting helps identify, process, and release core neurophysiological sources of emotional/body pain, trauma, dissociation, and other challenging symptoms.
Neuroscience-Based
A powerful neuroexperiential approach that harnesses the brain’s natural ability to heal and process trauma.
Focused Mindfulness
Uses specific eye positions to access and process stored trauma, enabling deeper healing and transformation.
Gentle Yet Powerful
A client-centered approach that works with the brain’s natural healing capacity at a comfortable pace.
Transformative Impact
Facilitates profound healing through the deep connection between brain activity, body sensation, and emotion.
“Where you look affects how you feel. Brainspotting helps locate, focus, process, and release experiences and symptoms that are typically out of reach of the conscious mind.”
