Brainspotting is a newer type of therapy that has its roots in EMDR. Read more here on our blog for An Introduction To Brainspotting and My Thoughts On Brainspotting. This type of therapy can be helpful in addressing trauma, performance issues, anxiety, negative emotions, physical pain, or mental blocks. Brainspotting seems to bypass the analytical cerebral cortex of your brain to directly access the midbrain structures associated with fear, memories, and emotion. Think of it like focused mindfulness, with a trained therapist supporting you. This type of therapy is great for those with anxiety or who tend to overthink, or who are getting in their own way of being successful. To allow for maximum processing time, Brainspotting sessions are best done in 90 minute sessions.
