Brainspotting
Brainspotting capitalizes on how God designed our bodies to heal, both emotionally and physiologically. It is an innovative and highly effective brain-based approach to help heal trauma, move past that “stuck” feeling, decrease psychological symptoms, and eliminate performance & creativity barriers. It has been described as “a physiological intervention with psychological benefits.”
How does Brainspotting work?
Brainspotting helps penetrate the dissociative barriers linked to traumas stored deep in the body, where they often are inaccessible to the conscious mind. A Brainspotting therapist assists a client in finding the eye position connected to a certain issue the client wants to work through, and maintains the supportive emotional space through attunement and compassionate presence during the process. This allows the deeply held emotional and physiological symptoms to be profoundly processed and released in a safe and effective manner, so that they no longer “leak out” through means such as depression, anxiety, insecurities, procrastination, poor self-image, low motivation, etc.
Use of this modality and other approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and Bible-based interventions can help you work through the issues that are causing distress in your life and relationships.
Hear Dr. David Grand, PhD
Dr. David Grand discovered and developed Brainspotting while working with a figure skater who was experiencing a performance block that manifested in a struggle to execute a certain move within her skating routine. During a therapy session, Dr. Grand discovered that when his client looked in a certain direction, that eye position was connected to unresolved trauma, and when she processed her trauma while looking in that direction, she was able to fully process her past. The next morning the skater called Dr. Grand, reporting that she was able to flawlessly execute her desired move without a hitch!
Experience victory and freedom!
Renewal of your mind, knowledge of your identity in Christ, trust in His power!
Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen. Ephesians 3:20-21
“I wanted to improve my job focus and received so much more. In two short sessions, Carol helped me break through some mental blocks using Brainspotting. Not only did my focus improve, but so did my sleep quality and my resting heart rate, which reduced by about 10 beats per minute.” ~Amy
“Brainspotting is a great way to get over intense fears and phobias in a short time. It helped me get over my life long fear of shots.” ~PF
