Brainspotting, developed by Dr. David Grand in 2003, is a physiological tool/treatment which has profound psychological, emotional and physical effects. Unlike talk therapy that targets the thinking brain (neocortex), it bypasses the cortical brain and provides access to the subcortical/emotional or feeling brain called the "limbic brain" and the autonomic nervous system. As a result, it speeds up the healing for deep emotional wounds and deeply rooted fears. It also links the mind/body connections to enhance sports or other public performances.
Brainspotting is based on the fact that trauma is stored in the body and can be activated or triggered by focusing on a particular point in your field of vision. The brainspotting practitioner uses a pointer to direct the gaze of the client across their field of vision until an eye position (brainspot "BSP") is reached that activates a certain traumatic memory or emotion. As the client continues to focus on that brain-spot, the trauma processes and is released. There are just five steps to the brainspotting process:
Dr. David Grand, who developed brainspotting, answers your questions. If traditional counseling takes too long to achieve results, is too expensive or has brought little results, you are in the right place. Brainspotting is a relatively new approach. It is not hypnotherapy, talk therapy or group therapy. It is based on the latest neuroscience and works with your subconscious mind and nervous system. It is safe and very effective.
With brainspotting there is access to resolve trauma that occurred between conception and 3 years old for which you have no autobiographical memory. Those memories are only "felt thought" or emotional and physical sensations stored in the subconscious mind or the cells of your body and nervous system. This even allows access to the emotions you picked up from your mother while you were in-utero!
