Brainspotting
Deeper than talk therapy
Trauma lives in the body. Brainspotting helps it move.
You’ve been in talk therapy for years and you understand your patterns. You can explain your childhood in perfect detail like a seasoned therapist…
And yet your body still says, “There’s more.”
That’s because trauma isn’t stored in language — it’s held in the subcortical brain, the deeper realm talk therapy can’t fully reach.
Brainspotting is the doorway to that realm.
It uses eye positions to access the hidden layers of your nervous system — places where unprocessed emotions, sensations, and memories live.
Together, we find a spot in your visual field that connects to an inner activation: a tightening, a pull, a wave of sadness.
From there, you simply follow what arises: silence, emotion, imagery, sensations, memories…
There is no need to perform or narrate. Telling your trauma story is never a requirement.
You can speak or stay silent. Your body leads. I track you. Together we follow what Brainspotting calls the “the tail of the comet” — the natural intelligence of your nervous system guiding us towards resolution.
Your intuition has a voice here. Your psyche has space to explore the hidden corners. Your body gets to release what it never could before.
Biolateral music can be added to help soften the edges, deepen focus, and keep you grounded.
It’s about giving your inner world the conditions it needs to finally exhale.
Brainspotting is ideal if you:
feel haunted by a long-standing issue
don’t want to retell the story
prefer a flexible and intuitive approach
want to move trauma out of the body
prefer meditation with a side of magic
need to access hope in the darkness
Brainspotting is helpful for:
Anxiety: loosening the knots in your nervous system and settling your mind
Grief: coping with the unbearable and being witnessed in your depths
Pent up emotions: allowing stuck feelings to move instead of fester
Creative blocks: clearing what’s in the way of your voice, intuition, art
Feeling stuck: shifting old patterns and creating new pathways
Relationships: illuminating unconscious relational contracts
Spirituality: quieting the noise and connecting to inner guidance
