Brainspotting Can Help You Release Trauma

Brainspotting therapy (BSP) is a powerful, brain-based approach that helps people process and heal from trauma, anxiety, and emotional overwhelm by accessing the parts of the brain where distress is stored. By identifying specific eye positions—called “brainspots”—that are linked to emotional and physical responses, this gentle yet deeply effective method allows the nervous system to release and reorganize stuck experiences. Brainspotting does not require retelling painful stories; instead, it works beneath conscious thought, supporting profound healing, increased self-awareness, and lasting relief. This therapy is well suited for individuals seeking deeper emotional regulation, trauma recovery, and improved overall well-being.

How does it work?

Brainspotting works by using the natural connection between eye position, brain function, and emotional experience to access and process unhealed trauma and stress stored in the nervous system. During a session, a trained therapist helps identify a specific eye position—known as a brainspot—that activates a meaningful emotional or physical response. By mindfully holding this position in a safe, supportive environment, the brain is able to process and release stuck experiences at a deep, subcortical level. This focused yet gentle process allows the nervous system to regulate itself, often leading to reduced symptoms, increased clarity, and lasting emotional relief.
